Default Re: Thoughts on Investment Banking

Wow, investment banking does sound intimidating. Are the hours really 90+ a week? I might be able to handle 70-85 hrs, but 90+ seems totally insane. I'm in high school right now but am going to attend Wharton this fall. I have been thinking about becoming an investment banker, but the stuff I've heard about this field of work is very discouraging. Is this line of work really as bad as people seem to make it out to be?

Also, if you're an investment banker, I'd like to know what was your major in undergrad? I'm deciding between finance and economics right now. Is one more ideal for ibanking?
