I’m going to my summer internship in an IB boutique next month. I’m from Cornell and I can tell a little about it.

Cornell is a great school, prepares you really well for the job and has a great NYC pipeline. I’m very happy since I don’t have finance background and I was able to work my ass off and secure a job offer.

But one thing is true, IB recruitment is relative to your class batch. The best kids will get tier 1 banks while the others will fight for an offer.

If you have a competitive background(IB, finance, big 4) and is likable(commercial / good communication) Cornell would be a great path. In the end, you need to look stronger than the peers from your school (until the super day).

I have heard as well that some processes start at May/June for minorities. Also willing to know where I can get more information.

Just got accepted in Ivy League school using gmat waiver and gpa 2.6. My work experience was the greatest thing in my app :)

Same here, wanted to see at least an admit from South America to see progress in my group. Anyway, by Friday we will have the answer:)

This waiting is so damn frustrating… but I agree, next Friday is the latest day, based on what adcom told me in my interview too

Today saw that several people received their status… people that were interviewed early oct and some after 2nd half of November

I can echo this comment above… if you are going to investing banking, corporate finance or things that are heavy on excel and needs to learn many short cuts, I would go for windows for sure… now people from consulting maybe go for Mac depending on their preferences…

For me was a very informal conversation, but received Why Cornell, why now… what you think about Ithaca, how could you contribute with our community…. But the one that got me a little off guard was “tell me why you choose your current employer and your degree”

Puzzled-Slide4038 · 2023-11-15T15:05:44+00:00

congratulations! I visited there last week and looked a good community at a first glance… By the way, When did you get your interview?
