<p>From what I’ve seen, right now you’d be looking at about a 1 in 10 chance of getting an offer from any firm whatsoever before graduation, all else equal and assuming you aren’t of extraordinary luck or ability, if you go to an non-top school and the economy doesn’t pick up. </p>
<p>Since I didn’t imply that calculus was akin to simple arithmetic, yet you think I did, I assume you aren’t of extraordinary intelligence, so my advice to you is to go to as good of a school as possible because of the superior networking opportunities, and higher grades for the same effort, cerberus paribus. Where you go to school definitely matters. Low-rent schools with serious professional programs aren’t pleasant places to be unless you like thick accents, and business programs especially are home to some haphazard and utterly unintelligent faculty members with no knowledge or ability, which is why you should aim for the top. They’re not all bad, but there’s a higher likelihood of them being bad, and sometimes you end up with ridiculous exams as a half-ass surrogate for academic rigor.</p>
