[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a realistic career path, even for FGLI, if and only if you go to the right school and network with the right people while in school. If the Ivies and Ivy-adjacent schools like Duke, UChicago, Amherst, etc., are out of reach, look for a known Wall Street feeder on the next tier like Bucknell, Colgate, or Richmond, and network like crazy from your first day on campus. Join a top-tier fraternity, get to know the alums, and make the career center your second home. And yes, be ready to log some serious hours doing work that is far from mentally stimulating or spiritually fulfilling, especially your first two years on The Street.[/quote] The concept of Richmond as a Wall Street feeder is even funnier and more delusional than the idea of a Bucknell pipeline.[/quote] I went to Bucknell. Every guy I'm friends with from there works on Wall Street. [/quote] Ignore the Bucknell and Richmond haters who seem to instantly materialize from the woodwork every time those schools are mentioned. Most Bucknell grads end up on The Street unless they're actively pursuing another field like law or medicine. And not in back office roles either -- another false charge from the haters, most of whom are probably mad they blew money on HYP or WASP and now have to call a Bucknell grad "boss."[/quote]
