I’m sure this has been discussed several times but Taking into account the network opportunities, cost of living, family life, and overall quality of the team, what are the best cities to work in for the major consulting firms?

All AMs on my account are supposed to get planning training, our CS VP was replaced with a VP of Planning but they kept the CS SVP. They said this is part of an “industry trend”.

Enrolled in Stern for a few weeks.
The number of the alumni and current students that go to top consulting firms FT& summer intern are countless even for a small class size.
Stern is way more than a finance school. Given its location, do you want to spend your 2 years in a rural area or heart of Manhattan? Location is almost everything for business school. (I have a friend in Cornell that frequently travels about 5 hours to NYC for events.)

I was praying I’d be able to get into T20 schools like Emory, McCombs, and UNC. 1 year later I’ve beaten the test and received interviews at Michigan and NYU while waiting to hear from CBS, Tuck, Kellogg and Wharton. I’m in a place I never thought I’d be. It’s been a tough year. But I’m proud im close to the end. Keep trying everyone.
