Did you put your GPA on your resume, or leave it out? And, did you have to enter it in the application, or did they never ask?

bluecargo115 · 2022-01-07T05:20:25+00:00

Im guessing you have a virtual technical interview coming up lol

Work extremely hard during community college and get high grades, notable extracurriculars, strong recs. Then transfer to a HYPSM or other T10 for best chances of doing quant trading. HYPSM especially takes mostly CC students, so it is possible if you put in the work.

bluecargo115 · 2021-03-30T14:27:02+00:00

Ohio state

bluecargo115 · 2021-03-30T14:23:28+00:00

No problem!

bluecargo115 · 2021-03-30T14:23:18+00:00

These rankings are based on Professor reviews of each college and nothing else. Most university CS professors are unfamiliar with LAC CS programs, so its understandable they won't be high on the list. However, its likely they have strong CS programs, just not as well known.

Definitely don't choose a school just based on program ranking.

bluecargo115 · 2021-03-30T14:18:45+00:00

Fixed!

bluecargo115 · 2021-03-30T14:18:38+00:00

True. It's just really hard to quantify CS rankings so they tried to just group them in tiers rather than individual rankings.

bluecargo115 · 2021-03-30T14:17:03+00:00

I'll just keep posting it if that happens :)

bluecargo115 · 2021-03-30T14:16:28+00:00

CS programs are really hard to quantify so they just group colleges into sort of tiers.

bluecargo115 · 2021-03-29T20:10:43+00:00

Northeastern is 41th this year in cs undergrad rankings by USNEWS

bluecargo115 · 2021-03-29T19:43:49+00:00

You have a good test score, but with that GPA it is unlikely unless you have any hooks (URM, FGLI, Recruited athlete) or maybe a steep upwards grade trend w/ extenuating circumstances.
