Any thoughts on the MBA program at Boston University? Is Boston University MBA good enough for positions at FAANG or MBB? And what about the MBA program at MIT?

BU certainly isn’t a target for mbb or FAANG, and Sloan obviously is...
You can look up employment reports on the school websites to get a pretty good idea of numbers hired by each of those firms

Sloan and BU aren't in even in the same league, more like South Pole vs. North Pole

It isn’t target for MBB

Bain and BCG hire a few from McCombs, I don't think McKinsey does. I'd consider McCombs a regional school like Goizueta, etc.

Dude, do your research. BU and MIT are on COMPLETELY different leagues..

BU's MBA is not strong enough for FAANG/ MBB.

MIT is a solid top program, you'll have plenty of options from there.
