High IQcels Only!

Who am i?
EU Highschool student with excellent grades

What are my goals?

Finance ( Investment Management with Carried Interest , Investment Banking or CFO ) or Management/C-Level ( COO, CMO, CIO, CEO ) or Real Estate / Sales

@Collagen or rope blackpilled me already on the shit quality of universities in EU so ill try to study abroad at a elite uni.
China seems great since their universities will rise dramatically in the QS rankings in the next decades due to economic growth and speaking Mandarin is a competitive advantage.

I also don't want to narrow / limit myself by doing specific Engineering/Science Degrees so it really has to be in the Social Sciences Group
I also don't want to learn something useless at a uni just because of the prestige e.g. Basket weaving at Harvard


Economics & Finance seems ideal

Quantitative enough to not get laughed at but easier and more broad than any Engineering/Science degree. Both the Finance and the Management Career path benefit from the content in the degree.

BSc in Economics and Finance - The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology - Programmes Offered - JUPAS

www.jupas.edu.hk

HKUT is ranked 20th globally by QS in " Accounting & Finance" and 16th in " Business & Management" and 29th in " Economics & Econometrics"

Keep in mind it will likely rise in the future since China will grow economically and politically

Thoughts?

i'd study a "real" subject (if you get what i mean) too so you have something else to put on your resume, like CS, not sure how prestigious chinese universities are considered (which matters more than whatever qualification you have tbh)

 

[Deleted member 7098]

europe has a bunch of great universities, don't let @Collagen or rope 's asian obsession with ivy schools blind you

just look at the resumes (on linkedin) of the people working in an investment bank, only the minority went to a ivy school

i know people who went to public universities and now work at goldmannsachs IB

any EU country that isn't further east than germany has great universities, in it, some have more, some have fewer

It doesn't matter

EU countries do not have one single prestigious university whether Italy or Germany or Netherlands

UK is not part of EU

I voted to leave the EU in 2016 to stop the Europeans stealing our fish

italy - bocconi, germany - TU Munich/WHU, france - PSL, switzerland - St.Gallen

these universities pump out Investmentbankers, spain also has a good one

Those are a joke
Nobody outside of these countries know them and they are only high ranked for 1 or 2 specific courses

Meanwhile Ivys or Oxbridge are ranked high no matter the course and are known internationally

and what do you care for if their gender studies course isn't ranked good, if they have great finance courses

as i said before, i dare you to look through LinkedIn profiles of actual investment bankers, the universities i named have so many more IBs than all ivy's combined in europe

Im also talking about Management / Executive Professions , not just Financial Professions and an ordinary university is definitely bad for that goal

 

[Deleted member 7098]

where do most executive professionals come from? Consulting.

and guess what the universities are that provide a lot of consultants to McKinsey, Bain and Boston Consulting Group

[Wallenberg]

haha lol is OP going to some Chinese university because "Europe doesn't have good unis" lmao

 

[Soalian]

Go to NUS, I know people there.

They all mog IQ wise tbh.

But I told u EU still has decent unis for Management/Finance, i.e. Bocconi, St-Gallen (not EU), INSEAD, HEC/ESSEC/ESCP, and Rotterdam School of Management

 

[Soalian]

OP now listen I know where you're coming from,

but over the last two years I've seen YOUR EXACT SAME THREAD ONLY IN REAL LIFE laid out to me, because I was mentoring/counseling undergraduate students at the time.

The competition for those jobs, first of all IB starting analyst positions in BBs is INSANE.

The reason why these schools (Bocconi, HEC Paris, Munich) have good placement within IB is because of language skills. A lot of graduates from these unis can speak english in addition to Italian/French/German etc, which is highly desirable in IB where you must interact with clients of all nationalities. You're an IB firm based in switzerland where 50% of your client base speaks german; which is the more attractive hire, an Oxbridge economics grad or a first class LMU Munich grad with native proficiency in German?

However, at the end of the day IB is still a prestige obsessed industry, and in terms of prestige top EU unis (they're still decent schools don't get me wrong) do not match up to top US/UK. What if that Oxbridge econs major also knew German? All things equal, HYPSM/Oxbridge are the ultimate moggers.

 

[Wakeup]

bro if u r a real high iq cel start your own business. I did and im making 6 figs. Bet on yourself

 

[Zradrad]

Unis like Bocconi and HEC Paris are known for pumping grads into IB even in the UK. Stop believing others' copes. Once you're in the industry it's easy to go to other companies around the world. Uni means very little 3-5 years after entering industry.

Only because the foreign language skills of the HEC/Bocconi/WHU graduates

All things being equal a LSE Accounting & Finance Graduate with additional proficiency in German and French will mogs any HEC/Bocconi/WHU graduate to self-harm

perhaps slightly better but no noticeable difference I don't think. All uni is for is getting your foot through the door and all of these unis are capable of that. Also these European unis are far far cheaper so that's another benefit.

USA is still the best

Correct. LSE mogs any EU uni for IB placement.

It's a bit disingenuous to say this. Yes, 3-5 years in the industry and they'll be looking at your work experience rather than your school. But school is what determines that work experience - the first job affects the second, which affects the third, and so on.

Nobody is going from Bob's Accountants to McKinsley.

Yeah, what i find interesting is how people say Social Science Degrees are bad when in fact 8 out of the top 10 degrees producing millionaires are Social Sciences

no shit. my point was that you can access any top job from a place like Bocconi. once your foot is in the door (as these places allow you to do) then there's very little difference.

You better stay in Italy like a little bitch if you go to Bocconi. GL getting your foot in the door in London with Oxbridge, LSE, Imperial, UCL and Warwick grads around.

Fortunately I've got a Cambridge offer.

These grads do regularly get into IBs in London despite a lower proportion of applying. You're honestly coping so much if you think it's over for European students going to the best European unis.

Yes, and end up working alongside Oxbridge and LSE grads. Considering the insanely long hours in IB, would you be ok getting mogged 24/7 like that? If so, again, you are a little submissive femboy bitch.

High IQ is not a necessary prerequisite for success. In fact, many high IQ ppl are rotting losers.

The real thing that you need to do is to stretch your balls, and I'm absolutely unironic here.

Don't try to be even smarter. You are high IQ already. Stretch your balls.

Speaking more generally, always train the thing you are weakest at. Many folks fall in the trap training the thing they are good at anyway. There's no much difference if you pump your best stat from 155 to 165. However, there is a great difference if you pump your worst stat from 5 to 15.

I can’t imagine not being NEET. It’s over for schoolcels.

 

[gaymidget]

Trying to make career is cucked af, your best bet is gaining a degree and than try to build up your own business in the field. The competition just increases the monetary gain of the company's. So every high IQ asian fuck is trying to be even more smart, even more hardworking to just get a little better position in the exploitation that capitalism is.
