Marks vs. Quantitative Skills: A Student Perspective
Question:
Is it better for me to do easier subjects which will improve my 'GPA' - Vs. - Doing harder subjects that are more quantitative and mathematical?
I am a final year business school student majoring in economics, wanting to move into management consulting.
What is the lifetime benefit of my GPA when applying for Short term: Internships, Graduate Roles, to then further down the track 10+ years.
I like a challenge and feel that doing the harder subjects, improves my quantitative and analytical skills. And therefore better prepare me for management consulting, or a career in banking.
