Never count, but throughout my recruitment days probably have met 200-300 SIMs I guess. My estimate is about 15%-20% are late bloomers who just happen to do poorly in school in their early days and can take on the competiton with better grads and even outperform them career wise. The rest mostly have sub-par careers compared to other degree grads and like to lament and attribute such poor career performance to the world being unfair and look down on SIM.
I'm a SIM student myself. What you said is quite true and similar to the way i perceive the situation. Given that, any advice for sim peeps in this regard? how should they improve on themselves.
