Top targets for BB Trading/Prop trading positions?

Career Opportunities & Internships
1

<p>Hey everyone. I am really into trading. I am an upcoming undergrad, applying next year. I want to end up trading on the Street. It could be BB or some prop shop. </p>

<p>Obviously they hire from such as HYPSM, my question is, do I have the same chance of getting an interview if i attend Stern, for example? </p>

<p>What are other top targets apart from Ivies? </p>

<p>And are those really differ and put you into a worse spot? I mean, would Ivy be seen as a lot more prestigious/better for what you are going to do (trading) than such as Stern/Ross/Haas for example? Are those 2nd tier? Or would you consider Stern to be as prestigious for trading of finance world as are the Ivies? </p>

<p>Thanks a lot for the answers.</p>

<p>Stern is number two in finance, it’s more prestigious than some Ivies. Now many Ivies dont offer business but you can really do any Econ or finance major for recruiting and top schools will all have excellent stats. These schools all have the topmost recruiting stats by ibanks:</p>

<p>UVA, Cornell, UMich, UPenn, Northwestern, NYU Stern, Duke</p>

<p>and any Ivies really will get you in an ibank whether prestegiously know business program ugrad or not.</p>
