You can imagine my shock

I’ve seen this play out so many times this year. With random weird majors like sociology and English and history those kids are getting the jobs (from good schools albeit).

It sort of depends on which investment bank you are talking about. This is not really that common in bulge bracket firms.

Its more school dependent than major.

This. Ivy parent. The ivies open doors for all majors into lucrative fields and top professional schools. It is what it is. Our first went to a very good state school and it was an entirely different group of careers that the kids tracked into, and zero possibility of some of the highest-paid careers available to basically every ivy grad. I never believed the hype until we had a kid go there

Same here…..
