Asked on MBA bowl but posting here for more responses. But real talk, how much leg up does MBB/T2 brand have on Big4/ACN strategy arms from admission standpoint to M7 or HSW? Is it just a ✅ ?

So far pretty happy where I am currently and think I can get fairly comparable experience that I would get from MBB/T2 but planning into the future and would consider jumping ship if it significantly increased chances to get to where I want. Halp! 🙏🏻

Can you share the code for the mba bowl?

We see 60% admit rates across M7, including H/W. S is just a crapshoot

H and S, it probably helps. If you can’t get into one of the other 5, then it’s likely the problem isn’t that you’re at a T2.

Deloitte places pretty well into the schools outside of Harvard and Stanford. Lots of Columbia and Northwestern and quite a few people at Booth

@b1: none h/s/w m7 admit rates at 85%+

I stand corrected. Either way, it’s shockingly high. Our admit rate to Deloitte is much lower of course. :-)

Thanks OP & A1!

Not surprised with the high admit rates. What I’m curious about is if all equal, GMAT, story, pedigree, how much weight would the MBB or Tier 2 name carry in admission considerations?
