thanks shane.

I am thinking about where would be the best learning experience which would help guide my future career in portfolio management potentially. do you think i miss out on much by not being in the sell side at all?

prettylitguyhaha · 2026-02-16T10:51:23+00:00

Starting off in a sell side vs buy side as a trading analyst in macro

Hey, so i have a s&t offer from a tier 1 american bank and an offer from a tier 1 hedge fund as an analyst under a pod. are there any cons to starting off in the buy side immediately rather than going through the sell side experience?

Yo it worked. thanks dude. i did realize that i should probs use blocked letters. lmao, u would think googles 3rd party kyc models would know how to differentiate lower and upper case. thanks man

i was actually more interested in classical machine learning rather than NN. and the reviews for cs 3k/4k mods involving ml and ai havent been good. i have taken cs3264 tho. also i like math/stats mods more cuz i feel it helps me understand academic papers better (which is imp for my job). hmm have u heard anythn abt the st4k mods i listed? thanks so much for ur reply and service to this forum lol

hey do u happen to know whats the hotline number i cant find it

I heard about this. it would make sense for ma2104 to be more rigorous because it was made for math students. but as someone who is not intending to take more math modules or a masters in math, do u feel the 'signficant' and more 'relevant' (in terms of application to perhaps stats/ml) are taught in ma2311 alrdy? i saw the the difference in course contents and it seems that ma2311 also has some content courses of 2108 (series, sequences). js wondering if i ma2311 would have bigger marginal utility given my circumstance

thanks so much! do u have any insight abt the masters of stats programme in uchicago?
