did you visit both schools? any major differences?
the thing about MIT, which I did not know before applying, is that undergrads and other non-mba students at Sloan participate in the same classroom as MBA students. Very few courses are restricted to MBA students.
Still if i get admitted at MIt there is a 70% chance I will attend, versus reapplying next year (not because i dont wanna attend MIT, but because I want to stay at my job another year, expecting huge promotion)
I've been to both schools twice (once to visit prior to applying and then I went back and interviewed on campus) I really liked each of them. The students I met at both schools were really down to earth and both schools have fantastic facilities. The class size a Sloan is much smaller and I like that as well as the intergration Sloan has with the rest of MIT. Fingers crossed!
Promotion could be good although I must say, I would not want to go through this process again next year! Good Luck!
