Almost all the European schools focus on 1 year MBA (INSEAD, IMD, HEC etc) and have MBB on their employment reports. Not saying I will go/not go for a European MBA, but not sure if 1 year is discriminated against?

D1, yea, one year MBA

I've never seen a 1 year MBA get MBB at my 8-15 ranked school

Just apply laterally (or first at least)

Kellogg has a good 1Y program

INSEAD is a great choice for a one year MBA
