Anonymous wrote:anyone listen to this interview on YCBK about kids in top school like HYPSM going off into IB or consulting, which isn't news to me. But he's saying more than half the grads go into this now. How is that even possible. Considering there are many kids graduating in bio or chem or engineering or gender studies or French or English lit.

I realize you dont have to be a finance major, but more than HALF these kids are going into consulting?


NP: I don't think this is true. I have 2 kids at Ivies, and grads are doing all sorts of things. I don't think majority are in consulting, def not IB.

What about people in IB working 80-100 hours a week in an entry level role? Is it ever worth it?
