Are these clubs worth joining? How favorable does it look when going in for an interview? Anyone have any experience with the McGill Investment Club?

I was looking over their stuff and it seemed overly regimented. Seems like a club to put on your resume not to actually learn anything.

My friend, LP, runs it. Hes also an analyst on the Managament undergrad soc. portfolio im running. It looks good to actively participate but not just to join.

The one at Penn State is really nice. It's pretty much the only way to get an internship/job at a place like Goldman Sachs if you come from Penn State.
