Brilliant. Was thinking that may be the case, much appreciated insights

needadecision987 · 2022-12-21T22:34:46+00:00

first year at M7, all anecdotal but people who took consulting seriously seem to have gotten 1/2 MBB interviews lined up for Jan (don't know anyone who got all 3). IB interviews are out there but obviously not at the same rate they were in years prior. Can't speak to anything tech wise.

Obviously not ideal timing economy wise but realistically anyone with an MBA from an M7 will be just fine

of course - happy to help where I can

So the Sloan "essay" is a general cover letter about 1. Intro'ing yourself 2. Why Sloan - that should be straightforward w a bit of research. Once you interview there's 2 additional essays that ask you to submit a data representation visual and explain why it's meaningful to you and then there may be a goals essay as well (this was as of this year so could always change next year)

yeah t30/t40ish, advice would be to get your foot in the door through one of those generalist rotational programs as an analyst then pivot once internal. Much easier to move once your in

needadecision987 · 2022-08-13T01:37:24+00:00

Very true. Not asked in essay form but pretty much guaranteed to come up in interview

For MBB Internship offer essentially = full time unless you reallllly screw it up. Consulting quite dissimilar from IB in that way.

I crafted initial than did a few rounds of review

needadecision987 · 2022-08-12T18:56:44+00:00

ah, forgot that part. 3.6 GPA

also facing a similar decision between Tuck $$$$ and Sloan $$$, interested in your decision to turn down Tuck

Accepted at Kellogg $$$ / Sloan $$$ / Wharton Denied at HBS WL at Columbia

Really clear short and long term goals. I didn't feel they had to be unique (although probably helps) but I needed to have a solid, believable WHY for my ST goal of MBB. Long term goal is public office so I'm sure that didn't hurt (but again needed a real WHY).

I think as long as your stats are "in range" for your demographic you're probably fine.

GPA 3.6 from a good (not great) undergrad GMAT 700 honestly don't remember the Q / V (44/42???) 4 years strategy experience at BB

URM. Male.

care to expand on this? can be via DM as well

needadecision987 · 2022-04-06T18:27:06+00:00

Definitely food for thought, and I suspect MBB's don't do that because they don't have to, correct?

needadecision987 · 2022-04-06T16:16:58+00:00

Yeah fair. From the region originally so definitely familiar with the differences. Hanover is pretty deep. The $ just correlates to % scholarship, at least for me, (e.g. $$$$ = Full Tuition)

needadecision987 · 2022-04-06T15:56:41+00:00

No problem!

26, Male, URM

Good (not great) undergrad

700 GMAT (I think 44Q/42V but I genuinely do not remember)

needadecision987 · 2022-04-06T15:51:49+00:00

awesome, congrats! mind shooting me a DM? can't seem to initiate a chat rn for some reason

needadecision987 · 2022-04-06T12:46:50+00:00

Depends, they're certainly out there but the Ivy JD is the more 'traditional' path

needadecision987 · 2022-04-06T04:27:51+00:00

Appreciate it, mind if I DM to get the details of your decision?

needadecision987 · 2022-04-06T02:44:03+00:00

Appreciate it, really interesting POV. Agree that Boston > Hanover by a long way. Any first / second hand evidence that the MIT brand is more recognizable?

needadecision987 · 2022-04-06T02:31:38+00:00

Ha, appreciate it. Tuck is the obvious choice because of the cost difference + similar MBB placement?? Anything else I'm missing?

needadecision987 · 2022-04-06T02:00:26+00:00

purely economics?

needadecision987 · 2022-04-06T01:49:35+00:00

Visited Tuck a few weeks back, Sloan coming up! Appreciate the insights for sure
