The smart hungry kid will achieve success more quickly at a T20 college. They'll get there too from other schools, but it may take a few to several years longer. |
Yes, also English. |
Because it makes our world crappier at a time when it’s already pretty 💩. |

Sorry Harvard English: $49775 I would go with the data rather than my roommate or my husband. Duh |
THis 1000% Majority of kids majoring in business or finance or math or whatever, do not have a plan to work in investment banking or MBB. Typically that desire is reserved for rich kids who grew up with parents who do that work or who live in NYC area and know people who do that. But few 18yo say "I want to be a high powered IB on Wall Street when I grow up" |
Every male interested in business in our graduating class’s non-DMV private does…maybe it’s a bubble? But yes they def do. And have the linked in profiles to match along with Ivy or T20 admits. |
Always, always, take a screenshot of the NPC results! You may need them if the college doesn't come through at that level. |
I would bet most don’t know what the job actually entails. It sounds glamorous and pays well…but it’s mind numbing and basically corporate hazing for two years and 100 hour work weeks. I would encourage them to pay attention to AI. Banks are starting to use it and the big ones believe it could displace 90% of analyst positions within 3-5 years. |
I mean forget elite schools. The insanity goes beyond the Ivy League. Flagship state schools are very, very competitive. |
AI is going to displace a boatload of white collar workers in the near future. |
But once you have that on the resume, much like with BigLaw, it's much easier to "downshift" to the job with much better long-term growth prospects and quality of life. |
lol -- they are not. From the right school PE, Wall Street, and other high end employers could care less what the major is. English Major from Princeton gets the job. |
When PP said hedge fund I think PP was using that for PE, HEdge, Wall Street. And yes they want econ and math majors. But most would be just fine with a history or English major from the right school (who was also an athlete). |
Not from a PE or Hedge fund. Not to start. |
Bingo. |
