Maybe a dumb observation but I’ve been hearing a lot of “HSW+MIT or bust” lately. Is MIT becoming the more popular choice among the non-HSW M7s?

For what it’s worth - This was 100% the case for me, but I am very interested in staying in MA long term so the MIT brand has extra value to me

I just applied to MIT and H/S for many of the reasons people are pointing out here.

Is PwC FDD really 2 years to get to experienced associate? Recruiter is basically stonewalling my attempt to come in as an experienced hire with ~1 YOE and my CPA (wants me to come in as an associate aka a campus hire) . I get that when you jump firms, you might have to take a title downgrade, but it's confusing to me when I see people on here and elsewhere say they like got an offer as a senior associate in FDD with ~2 YOE in audit and I can't even come in as an A2.
