As far as I know, Investment Banking IS the highest paying profession to enter right after college. Believe me, the money you make is not worth the 'politics' and 'long-hours' you put in.
Also, unless you attend an Ivy League School (i.e. Harvard, Yale, Brown, Columbia, Stanford...etc.), there's a 95% chance that you won't get the job.
My advice to you would be to attend the university of YOUR choice and study something YOU enjoy...the money will come. |

I'm a straight A student and I don't think Havard, Penn, Cornell, Dartmouth, etc. is out of reach. Provided I keep my grades where they are of course.
Besides IB, are there any close seconds in terms of careers I should look at as close seconds. Perhaps other tracks that are just about as lucrative and prestigious. I just to explore as many worthwhile options as possible and learn as much as possible about different careers before I go to college.
By the way, thank you for your reply. What is your background if I may ask?
Regards.
