Does anybody know the ratio of CBs from the screening interviews? Is it higher than OCI? Thanks!

no real basis for this, but my hunch is that it's significantly lower than OCI (assuming you would have gotten the interview through OCI)

1) some firms go there with no intent to really hire
2) as a whole, students there are less qualified
3) sunbelt specifically takes place after UT's OCI, where these firms (at least the TX-based ones) will have already filled most of the CB slots

on the other hand, if these firms don't really visit your school or only take the very top of the class, obviously your chances there will be higher than at your school (where the chance was 0)

I figured that as well -- but there's no harm in trying.

Surprisingly, some firms made CBs. Got 3 this past week. My friend also got 3 CBs (from other firms).

Both UT. I'm Top 1/3. He's Top 1/4.

PB, AG, Kelly Hart, & Munsch.
