[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to a state school (Big Ten). It will mostly likely prevent a student from getting the very top business jobs (Carlyle, Goldman, etc), but not most jobs that most people want/will have. [/quote] Sorry, wrong. I know someone who was at Carlyle who went to a no-name school. Doesn't even have a graduate degree. Left for a better opportunity and now pulls down mid-7 figures. School means nothing. It's how smart you are and how hard you work, plus a little bit of luck. [/quote] Is this person in their late 30's or older? For the under 30's set finance/consulting recruiting is skewed big time towards name brand schools. Not saying ivy or MIT or Stanford is a guarantee, but it increases your chances (i.e. allows for greater margin of error...whether its lower gpa or 'easier' major). [/quote]
