This is a good suggestion, but I need dat rigor though.

I took a lot of math that I feel like would go to waste on this route

Front office work is much more CHILL. Let the china quants do the number crunching while you’re whining and dining fund managers, shitting on lawyers.

real talk though how much math did you take

phd programs care most about 1. quant background and grades and 2. research experience. if you're targeting lrm then you're mostly competing against azn superstudies who have no research experience and who might have no UG econ experience but who took shittons of math.

really can't give much advice w/o more context but 1) even if you get tuition + stipend you shouldn't expect a large enough stipend to live on from an lrm, and 2) you shouldn't expect to get a great job out of an lrm (and not an academic one)

a vlrm job, 99 times out of 100, is probably more like a lecturer position, or teaching high school

these faculties are so small and full of boomers that they never really hire a true AP

maybe ur ok with that but it's hardly an "academic position" and probably not worth paying for grad school for

Yeah so a couple dudes said they were making 80-100 at vlrm on 9 month contracts

Maybe the mba is better. But I have a somewhat rigorous background I don't want to totally fuck off. And business is fucking gaaaay

yeah that's hardly an "academic position" then

if targeting industry u should probably just do data science & shit, you'd make more than an lrm who went through 6 years of a shit phd

I might be happy just teaching at a shit school.

I'd also potentially be happy doing data science in industry but I don't know if I have the creds for that. Currently f500 analyst but not data heavy
