Interesting post I took off the BW forums:
Hi Guys,
I did some work based on the employment information contained in the BW profiles - full time and internship employment placement. I looked at 2 industries: consulting, and investment banking. I added all the placements at each firm, for the most recent full-time plus intern classes. Then I organized it by category and by school, and adjusted for class size. I listed the top 10 in each category below. Please enjoy!
*Caveats: HBS, Stanford, NYU Stern, Tuck and Yale SOM would not provide the information so they are excluded. Darden only provided information for the full time class, so their % of class is based on that and adjusted accordingly. For consulting, I included McK, Bain and BCG. For IB, I included all top 10 IB's. If you'd like any more detail on the underlying info I'm happy to share.

FYI...Yale does not give info to business week, but on their employment report 26% (53 students) went into IB and 14% (28 students) went into consulting out of 205 students for 2007. This is not a breakdown of top 3 for consulting. I would imagine that the consulting is mainly top 3 but the IB is probably top 7 or 8.
