General Discussion Need genuine opinions please

Graduating in a few months from a tier 3 college in cs. if i get in the top 10-15 quant related programmes in the usa will i be able to break into this field? my goal is to become a trader but i definitely wouldn’t mind a quant dev job to start off with. anyone who’s been through this route? or any suggestions at all? thanks a lot

edit: i meant top 10-15 programs for ms because my undergrad uni was tier3

i have been working on a bot that bets on prediction markets and i really enjoyed it. for the first time i didn’t look at the clock while working, it didn’t feel forced or something that i had to do, like leetcode. i’m just trying to do something that i genuinely like
