<p>ooo ic how it is, this is an A and B conversation and im supposed to C my way out of it eH??</p>
<p>mssales> I have no idea. I would suggest that you do not focus on salaries though but on the overall compensation packages. For example, bonuses form the bulk of the compensation recieved in say the M&A department rather than the salary.</p>
<p>ooo i was noticed siggh, i dont feel invisible anymore…</p>
<p>Hmm…You are right, I just wanted to make sure it wasn’t just commissioned based. Likewise, I searched the threads, and no one really talks much about it on here. I saw a description, but no real discussion.</p>
<p>I’m not so sure they are just exceptions though if you click on not the general UMich, but the UMich-Ross, it does not have ibanking and likewise for texas, northwestern and a few others, and obviously thats not the case, all of these schools are recruited heavily for ibanking, so I dont know if that would be the best source</p>
<p>uhyea, I noticed that too.</p>
<p>o yea guys umm i noticed it too…</p>
<p>Yes some were definitely errorenous. However, this is late in the recruiting season and these lists are not updated and overall “screwy”. For example, if you head to Morgan Stanleys one you only have Williams College left for North American recruiting sites. Best to check this during the fall.</p>
<p>williams college SUCKS GOO LORD JEFFRIES!!</p>
<p>Yeah, all of them need to update, august/sept would be best</p>
<p>"2- As for my statistics, i hate to be a kill joy, but
I got them off the website, however i couldnt find reference to the 67% and had to refer to wikipedia
Class of 2009 at a Glance </p>
<p>Admissions Statistics
Number of Applications: 33,721
Percent Offered Admission: 29.7%"</p>
<p>Hannibal- I hate to be a kill joy, but I got my information from someone who works at Stern, not Wikipedia. My approximate statistic for “this year” describes the class of 2010, not 2009. </p>
<p>Additionally, I’m sorry if you think that I was targeting you when I complained about rankings. My thoughts on rankings are separate from my complaints about your post. As I said, rankings can give you important information. However, I think that many people take rankings too seriously. My post was meant to encourage people who might place too much weight on rankings to consider other factors. I believe that I said, “Yes, rankings can provide you with information about schools. However, they are not the be all, end all.” As you said, students want to know “which schools are good.” Rankings can give you direction. However, they cannot give you answers. For example, a student can learn that schools like NYU, UPenn, and UMich have strong business programs. However, not every school with a strong program will fit the said student’s educational needs.</p>
<p>upon research the base salary for a PCS at Bear is 40k.</p>
<p>the recruiter’s rankings just seem really off. Miami at number 3 and emory at 56</p>
<p>heres the link so you don’t have to go back and find it.
<a href=“Businessweek - Bloomberg”>Businessweek - Bloomberg;
<p>Schools like NYU will automatically have higher median slaries simply because new york is an expensive place to live and that is where a lot of students end up working. Same goes for other expensive cities.</p>
<p>With the 6th pick in the 2006 NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers select…Vernon Davis, Tight End from Maryland (thats when I start to tell myself that the Niners are going to win the Super Bowl this year).</p>
<p>Why is the NFL draft relevant to this thread?</p>
<p>Yea it’s not relevent. But it’s definately more important. Vernan will be a great TE. Quite a speciman.</p>
<p>No doubt, cant wait till season starts.</p>
<p>I think a few of the posters on this thread forgot that the rankings Business Week provided were for the undergraduate business school.</p>
<p>For example, one person argued that Indiana University couldn’t be a top 10 business school because the 25/75 SATs were at 990-1220–failing to point out that the Kelley school undergraduate direct admits last year had 1314 SAT averages. They also overlook that Indiana ranked 11th on USNW–so 10th on Business Week shouldn’t be much of a surprise. </p>
<p>Someone else wondered why UC Berkeley wouldn’t be much higher rated than 12th–failing to realize that UC Berkeley’s top rated undergraduate programs are in engineering and humanities, not business. (In fact, I would say a strong case can be made that UC Berkeley–if it only had these two fields at the school–should be the top rated undergraduate university in the country).</p>
<p>Someone wondered how Brigham Young could be ranked 8th, (and the #1 recruited school) when the average salary is so low. But this, of course, overlooks the fact that the average Brigham Young graduate is Mormon, very likely to stay in-state, and that Utah salaries are notoriously lower than the national average. It also overlooks the fact that most Brigham Young graduates major in accounting, which tends to pay lower than most business specialties.</p>
<p>My answer is the rankings are what they are. I’m sure they will be debated every year–but while they are controversial (same as USNW’s are), they generally do provide at least some grain of truth and the information they provide should be considered by those trying to find the best school to attend.</p>
<p>P.S. Some people on this board should look up the term “cognitive dissonance”–and not be so certain that their “truth” is the correct one. I’ve learned a lot from different posters on here myself (untilted, igotone, Alexandre and bluebayou, for example) that didn’t jive with what I thought I already knew–and I would think if some people weren’t so certain that they already knew everything, they could actually learn a lot from the other very smart people that post here on a regular basis.</p>
<p>Good points Calcruzer.</p>
