Would you take a full ride at Stern/Darden/Fuqua/Tuck over sticker price at Booth/Kellogg if your goal was Consulting and not IB/other Finance?

Tuck/Darden... maybe

like

No

Depends where you want to work after

Yes

Tuck yes. Think you can make the case for the other schools either way (no for me, but to each their own).

i absolutely would. you can get an interview coming from any of those schools. after that it’s on you. going to kellogg/booth isn’t going to give you the job over the others if you don’t interview better than them.

Additional Posts in MBA Applicants

I’ve decided to apply for an mba next fall for fall 2024 start since I don’t have the gmat done, recs, etc. Do you think fall 2023 would be a bad time to apply for a fall 2024 start with the job market, economy, etc. Does it make sense to try to hustle and apply for round 3 this winter for a fall 2023 start instead?

Hi all, wanted to get your thoughts on my chances for H/S/W and Sloan/Booth.

Work - ~3Y at Bain LDN. 2 promotions, 2nd one an “accelerated / early” direct promotion to post-MBA role. Ratings have been “above average” throughout tenure.
GMAT-750
Edu- UG from Top-3 UK Engg. (1st Class - highest grade possible, equivalent of 4.0 GPA?) and Masters in Finance from Oxford

Ugh another one of these ABC vs. XYZ questions... but Kellogg or Booth?

MIT Sloanies - why do they flake so much? Connection to the school seems weak.

After being admitted, I reached out to other current students at other M7s and generally they’ll spend 10 to 30 minutes to chat.

Sloan’s hit rate is 50% and requires multiple follow ups for the ones who agree to talk. One even suggested to correspond via email. I mean these are current 2Ys who are basically on half vacation. And I’m an admit - not some random asking “what is the culture”.

Am I just unlucky?
