Hey all. Avidly reading the forum/articles; lots of good stuff here.
I had three questions.
1) How important is it to go to a "top-tier" school in undergrad and grad/phd respectively for a quant job.
2) Is there any job in the _finance_ industry that can lead to a quant job?
3) What are the hours like :P Is it completely brutal like IBanking or a little bit toned down (I do not mean a 9-5 thing though.)
