[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Absolute numbers matter more than per capita.  This whole thread is useless. [/quote]
You can use the link in the OP to see the overall numbers list and the per Capita list. HYPSM do worse in the overall list. Mainly because they are midsized schools. Stanford is 21 and MIT is 29 on the overall list. [/quote]

The list posted is I believe for IB analyst positions. Anecdotal based on my kid’s internship last summer: MIT and H appear to dominate in quant/hft trading eg 2sigma, hudson trading, jane st, citadel etc. OTOH, 20% of Stanford undergrads are CS majors and probably another 15% are related-cs (symbolic systems and product design)[/quote]
I'm glad you realize it's anecdotal quant trading is not investment banking nor is it a big enough industry to do analysis such as this on. Stanford and MIT students might very much focus on other industries but in doing so they give up influence and a strong network within typical financial roles [/quote]
