The kids I know fit this description but I have a very small sample.

Not a dumb question. Answer is yes, and that is why someone posted about fraternities.

When I was an undergrad, it was the econ and other liberal arts majors who hor those jobs. Eventually most people on this path get an mba anyway. An undergrad business degree has always been considered pretty weak.

I know a current junior at a small, Catholic college who got a summer internship in IB with one of the big firms. He’s a very social kid, smart, polite, charming and a great networker. He did all the footwork to get the job as the IB firms do not recruit at his school. It is possible!

PP back - kid is a finance major.

What do you consider regional? Anything outside of NYC or anything outside of major cities like LA, Chicago, DC, Philly, Boston?

My interpretation: a global bank but rather than NYC or London, they put you in the Raleigh office.

Business prof back to tutor you on basic probability. Your link shows the percentage of Wall Street employees by college major.

Accounting, business, finance: 48%,
Economics: 20%,
Engineering: 9%,
Math and Statitics: 7%.

But there are over 10 times as many business majors as economics majors, around 3 times as many business majors as engineering majors, and around 14 times as many business majors as math and statistics majors. This means business majors actually have a smaller chance of making it to Wall Street than those other majors! Thank you for proving my point.

Of course, business might be a fine choice for some people. You could be a business major at UVA, taking extra electives in STEM. Or you could be an applied economics major at Northwestern/Dartmouth/Brown/Columbia taking available electives in financial economics and STEM. The education and opportunities would be similar. Heck, Columbia students can just take the subway to interviews on Wall Street.

where did you get 10 times
Some schools don't even have business majors.
If you are a professor, you should do better than pulling stuff out of your a$$
of course Northwestern/Dartmouth/Brown/Columbia are fine options, nobody said otherwise.

This proves the industry likes business major the most.
You would have the highest chance majoring in business at a top target school and be one of the top students.

It depends what you’re doing. Some of the jobs select purely on brain power (like being very mathy, IQ 145 or 155+) and being willing to work really hard.

Those things that you described are some of the traits that most D1 athletes have in non-revenue sports such as tennis or golf. They don't have to be great, just good students. That's why most of them get jobs on Wall Streets. You don't have to be the smartest to work in IB or consulting, just being good is often enough. Getting jobs in IB or consulting is not easy even for Ivies grads, unless you have connections. Athletes, regardless of Ivies, have connections that regular students do not.

An econ degree from Northwestern/Dart/Brown/Columbia would be remarkably more valuable than an undergrad business degree from just about anywhere except Wharton.

Couldn't google the other half? DUH

Show me number of graduates for economics and undergraduate business from T25 schools.

Northwestern is severely overrated and over-hyped.
It's three most popular majors are econ, psychology, communication/journalism.

It's econ students are obviously behind business students from NYU, Georgetown, Cornell, Notre Dame, UVA, Berkeley, etc. etc.

Northeastern psychology: $49533
Communication/journalism: $53833

People need to stop pulling $hit out of their arsse

Speak with data, sources, references.

Still waiting for numbers for Econ graduates vs Business graduates from T25 schools.
