T14 public school? Did you just make up a new designation of schools?

likefunny

Wow completely missed the public school part. “T14 public” might be one of the craziest descriptors I’ve heard. I get maybe saying top 5 public to refer to umich, cal, UCLA, uva but t14 is too much

M7 (assuming you don’t botch the app and interview) is likely given those stats and you apply to a few of them. H/S are always a long shot even with a real strong profile (like yours).

Assuming this is for next year and not R3 apps this cycle?

like

Yep next year, just started PE so Im assuming one year of exp there before starting

OP: URM is possible anywhere these days.

M7 definitely, good chance at HSW

It seems like everyone is in agreement that switching firms gives you a salary boost, but that you could be viewed as someone that doesn’t stick around. Has anyone felt like they got held back from jumping firms every 2-3 years for the salary bump? I know peers that bounced around 2-4 times in a 7 year span and they are making significantly more money than if they stayed at their first job, however it didn’t seem like any of the new companies cared that they bounced around. Other experiences?
