[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What happened to HYPSM?[/quote]
Right lol. But I think Stanford and MIT students focus mainly on tech. [/quote]

More of a knock against Yale and Princeton. We all know that Stanford and MIT dominate tech, so we have an impression that HYP would be the top Wall Street feeders. But that doesn't seem to be the case.[/quote]

I mean, it is still the case.  Just because Yale and Princeton send fewer kids to finance than LOLChicago according to whatever metric this list used doesn't mean that they don't do well in terms of placement.

Does anyone in their right mind think that Columbia places better than Harvard?[/quote]

I mean... Columbia does place better than Harvard...[/quote]

Isn’t that what the Wall Street list shows?  It shows Columbia’s placement rate is stronger than Harvard’s. And in Silicon Valley, Harvard is a lesser school than Columbia. [/quote]

+1. Stop letting your HYPSM prestige obsession get in the way of acknowledging reality. A lot of schools, including Columbia, has a better engineering and CS school than Harvard, so it’s not even a surprise that they place better. [/quote]

Not a Harvard fan but nobody in their right mind would choose Columbia over Harvard. They might choose Yale, Stanford or MIT over Harvard but NOT Columbia.[/quote]

Plenty of people in their right minds might choose C over H for a variety of different reasons.

Finance placement, however, should never be one of them.  A strong, motivated student will have far more first-job finance options coming from Harvard than any other school (except arguably Wharton).[/quote]

Have you seen the placement rate that shows C tops H in Wall Street placement?  Your need to improve your English comprehension. [/quote]

The fact that Columbia sends more kids to IB programs or [b]whatever methodology they use (I'm too lazy to read the article linked in OP) is irrelevant[/b].

If a Harvard grad wants to go into finance, he or she will have more and better options than a similar Columbia grad.[/quote]

This explains everything lol. [/quote]

There's no reason to read it because it's clickbait bullshit.

Say it with me: Columbia does not have better finance placement than Harvard.  If Columbia sends more kids to IB analyst roles than Harvard does it just means that the Harvard kids are choosing something else.[/quote]

Are you the “lower ivy” dumb?[/quote]
