![]() ![]() ![]() Once you are an analyst, you will be placed on a sector team and be responsible for pitching ideas from your sector. If you are interested in finance, this is probably the most important/helpful club to join. Conducts a class that, if passed, certifies you and allows you to interview to become an analyst. Interest-Specific Clubs:The Investment Club (I-Club)The most notable traditional finance club on campus. The least commitment of the three of these groups, but also likely the least reward. Less selective and has been less of a tight-knit group, but is trying to become more similar to the above groups. AKPsi (Formerly DBS):The newest of these three groups had been called Duke Business Society. Likely will learn less directly from DSP compared to Scale, but still helpful to be connected to upperclassmen who can answer questionsJoin if you don't want to grind during pledge and are just looking for a network of people with similar career interests. Less finance focused than Scale and Coin and less of a time commitment around pledge. Generally thought of as less hardo and slightly more of a social crowd. DSP:Had been considered similar to Scale and Coin, but has had trouble as of late as they were not able to recruit due to issues with nationals. Likely the group you will learn the most from, but is also more of a commitment during training. Also has students interested in consulting, entrepreneurship, etc. Still social to a degree, but most students have friend groups or other social organizations outside of Scale and Coin.Join this if you are interested in finance / business and willing to grind during pledge. Has a large percentage of the top finance kids and a strong culture of finance mentorship. Conducts a relatively rigorous training process for their pledging. ![]() (a worry I have heard from freshmen).Scale and Coin:Considered the most hardo of these organizations. Each has a distinctive vibe and different pros and cons, but none are traditional frats with hazing etc. Feel free to pm me or ask questions for specifics.Social Business Organizations (Business Frats):These are all co-ed social and professional groups that generally run a relatively selective rush process involving social events and some type of interview. This post hopes to serve as a guide of what resources/clubs are available to you at Duke and what I would recommend after being a part of quite a few of them. First, I loved my time at Duke and also think the finance pipeline has improved tremendously in my time here. For context, I am a senior at Duke and have interned in / going FT to IB, keeping a bit vague for anonymity. I thought I would write this out as I would like to give back a bit of knowledge to the forum. ![]()
