Just sayin'....

I agree, it is useful to separate the high school group from the undergrads.

So, a. no job or real experience b. you think goldman and morningstar are somehow comparable/close in prestige/ranking/career value c. worry about smalltime 35k in debt d. use vague terms like "big 10" and list your major GPA (well, a part of it at least) in addition to your shitty overall gpa If I was you I would be worried a bit. But hey, what do I know, I'm just drinkin' mah whiskey and entertaining myself here.

What a useless individual you are. If you have a job I bet it's in some zero-sum industry like bond trading. And I bet you're the one getting fucked.
