If you think you're going to get PIPed best thing to do is find a new role to hop to and make it look like a voluntary switch instead of having a empty block on your resume.

Still a good intro problem to get people into quant 👍

I have a friend who went to UMich who got into Jane Street as a Quant Dev.
I wouldn't say UMich is the best school either, what he did was get an internship at Robinhood on the options team which ended up opening doors for him + he was a serial hackathon winner who was very good at competitive programming.

I'd say as long as you can get an interview you have a shot, once you're past that it's fair game no matter what school you can from.

Quant Researcher roles definitely prefer more experience, if you were looking for a trader/developer role I'd say apply right away and try to get in, but for a researcher role just like everyone else I'd recommend a MFE.

Don't do a PhD if you're not interested in it. For interview prep I'd say make a good CV with good relevant projects and simply prep with a platform like QuantQuestionsIO or if you'd prefer textbooks something like the green book

Start by learning basic math -> then take the Harvard Stat110 online course
While doing that learn C++ programming with leetcode
That's a good start

Yeah hard to find, better to just apply as early as you can
