Hey Folks,
First, I want to thank all those on this board with the help they provided during my GMAT preparation back in October and November! Everyone was very helpful in answering questions, explaining concepts, and posting excellent feedback.
I am in at Darden and at Cornell and now I have to make a decision between the two. Since both admit weekends occur at the same time, I would like to solicit the forums thoughts on this situation.
I'm not quite sure what I want to do post-MBA. I am stuck between banking, corporate finance and mgmt consulting. Long-term, I may return to India.
Cornell
Pros: Ivy-league brand recognition (esp in Asia), immersion learning, small community
Cons: Location (and how it affects recruiting)
Darden: Career prospects in mgmt consulting, facilities
Cons: Boot-Camp (I want to learn, but not 24/7). Not sure what value it carries outside the US.
Can anyone provide any insight or your own personal thoughts?
Thanks!!

For INTL, I agree with Cornell's namebrand. I don't think UVA would carry its domestic prestige into the international world.
