| The_prestige, I don't think looking at per capita numbers is very meaningful. In this particular case, absolute numbers are more telling.
I am not sure I understand your point about universities with undergraduate business programs. Those students, had they attended a school with no undergraduate Business program, would have merely majored in another field and upon graduation, pursued a career in Finance.
Furthermore, Dartmouth has an MBA program. In fact, a significant chunk of the 35 Dartmouth students working at the three PE firms listed above are alums of Tuck.
Like I said, if you are going to break the numbers into per capita figures, you have to also provide details about the % of students at those universities who ever intended on pursuing careers in finance. It simply cannot be done. Best look at the absolute number. |
