Anyone here know how Point B consulting is regarded among the M7 MBA admission? Anyone at Point B and at M7? Sounds like a place with lots of responsibilities early on but not enough name recognition.

No name recognition is spot on.

Check LinkedIn to see whether any former Point B employees have gone on to top schools. That’ll give you evidence for where they end up.

Hello folks,

Need some advice on the following situation I am currently in:

I understand wlb will be screwed at either of those big 4 and clients will be India based.
Which of these should I choose?
