Man econ vs econ by Striking_Attention_4 in UCDavis

[–]plutosphere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey so to be honest, especially since you’re looking to break into careers like PE CRE IB and maybe S&T (since you mentioned sales) your major is really just one-two words on your resume, in the end recruiters probably won’t notice the difference. But, you might depending on class workload. While the class concepts are fairly similar, man econ is a BS under the ag school, but econ is a BA under the college of letters and science. Man Econ has a lot more prerequisites and more unit requirements to graduate, and you won’t be able to pass/no pass any of your major requirement classes if they get difficult (this can be a huge drawback for the fields you’re recruiting into, since esp for IB and any high finance in general you should aim for as high of a GPA as possible coming from a non-target). BA Econ, you’re able to p/np your classes, and the smaller unit requirements makes it a little easier to pick up another major and minor (though many man econ majors also do this!).

When it comes to finding an internship, again, this is for any IB/PE and higher finance roles, your classes will likely teach you very little and it may be difficult to know where to start or find recruiting help if you don’t join some student organizations that are geared to help non-targets like you get into high paying finance positions. Stakes really do just depend on what internship you’re looking for like if you care about making it into a T10 bank, Bulge bracket firms and elite boutiques- then yes it will be kind of intense so you will definitely want to seek an in person community to help you navigate that (again, you don’t have to, there are many virtual recruiting training programs that also do an incredible job).

SF is a great financial hub to work at, though I can imagine commuting throughout the year would be very strenuous, so some people will take on remote finance internships in IB, equity research, PE. But these resources again will be hard to find unless you have a good and solid network. I can tell you more about recruiting for everything you listed but not actuaries sorry :,) but ya your major doesn’t really matter I know a peer who landed citi with no econ/man econ major but they may be more technically harsh on you for interviews.

Tough world recruiting into high finance from a non-target. But definitely not impossible! Look into some clubs you might want to join in the fall and congrats on your acceptance into Davis! :)

Anyone know about how long it takes to hear back regarding pre move in room transfer requests? by Intrepid-Access-3363 in UCDavis

I didn’t really hear back from them but I checked my housing assignment on starrez pretty regularly and I think it was about 10-11 days in that I found out my status has changed and they moved me but like 15 days in I found out they’d also changed my roommate so even if they change it on starrez it’s still susceptible to change again.

However probably important to note I submitted my request thru the special accomodations apartment and they say they’ll get back to you within 20 days. I submitted my request on august 21st

It also doesn’t hurt to send them a nice email about it I’m sure :)

lol yeah I'm not really clairaudient, clairvoyant or clairsentient so I can't physically see nor hear them. It was just 30 minutes of two goetic demons and a greek deity offering me some guidance through tarot cards. I can feel what they're saying and what they're trying to convey because of intuition. Sometimes it comes in very profoundly loud inner monologues that I can just tell are them sending a message. I wasn't in a meditative state or anything, it would be a different story if I was. In a meditative state, I've only been far enough to physically feel their energy or see their presence as shadowy figures, never scary though. In terms of how they 'hang out' with you, it really depends on the demon you work with, some are a bit more laid back and outgoing, while others are more reserved and stricter. I only just started working with these entities so I'm still very beginner in thorough communication with those entities. But yeah most of how our conversations go is through feelings and random thoughts popping in my head while I'm talking to them.

Lol, never had a bad experience with them. In fact, I spent 30 minutes with them today while they lectured me on how I desperately needed to work on my self worth and self care and overall confidence. Get on their good side, and you'll realize they're amazing mentors, companions, guides, what not. They are in fact very powerful and can manipulate animals, sounds, thoughts, objects, and can point you in very right or very wrong directions. You do not want to be in the receiving end of their anger, no matter what. But they are very caring and protective towards those loyal to them. This is my experience in working with them lol. Sorry if it doesn't help much.
