[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can those who know the field provide some descriptions of what a Bachelor's or a Master's graduate would be doing in a job immediately out of undergrad or grad school?[/quote]

It’s a really wide field. Here are some possibilities but this list isn’t exhaustive:

-Kid is interested in finance/investing/making lots of money, majors in econ (and maybe double in finance or math), gets an IB analyst or PE job.

-Kid is really into econ, wants to go to grad school, hits the math classes hard and goes on to a PhD.

-Kid is really into econ but not good at math, goes to DC for a policy job and/or goes to grad school for a master’s in policy/IR/soft econ.

-Kid doesn’t care about econ, wants to signal that he is practical or business minded and ends up in a F500 management program. If really a top student he ends up in management consulting.

-Kid doesn’t care about econ but is kind of quanty and ends up as a data analyst.

-Kid decides halfway through that he wants to go to law school instead and does that.[/quote]
