Booth is a much better school than Fuqua, arguably a better school than Kellogg. How much does the scholarship matter? I’d want a much bigger chunk of money to prioritize Duke, personally

Yea worth seeing if they can pump up the bass.

Booth is better than both, and more prestigious. I was accepted to both Booth and Kellogg and overall more impressed with Booth’s program. Kellogg seemed good for marketing though if that’s your goal.
