<p>Yes it in monotonus work, but arent the payoffs much greater?? Im sure the holy grail of jobs at Wharton is PE right out of undergrad, so isnt IB–>PE the next best thing? I am actually suprised how relatively few grads go into IB…
IB is pretty much the end goal for many students who enter wharton, and basically isnt their whole wharton undergrad experience a waste if they decide to go into real estate/marketing/commercial banking? Only about 50% go into consulting/IB which is a pretty low figure for the #1 bschool in the country</p>
