[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You mean undergrad matters? Shocking. I was told that there was a college for everyone and that it didn't matter if a kid went to an ivy [/quote]

Of course the NYT is the only place that employs journalists

And there are only 8 investment banks.

Only 4 consulting firms.

It's not all that different for top consulting firms either:

Yes but the point I was making was the focus on “top”.  There are hundreds of such smaller firms that are more than happy to hire a smart grad from other colleges.   You're more likely to get wealthy by joining one of the “non top” ones, making partner, and getting bought out by a PE shop or a bigger firm than you are by trying to land a job at McKenzie and grinding through to make partner there.  The “top firms” have closed the draw bridges to all but a very few.  [/quote]
