Hey Guys,
Need your advise on accepting an admission from Kelley.
My profile is Russian, 28
GMAT 640 (q47 v31)
Private Banking, Top Russian investment company
CFO of IT startup
I was admitted at Kelley. Want to switch to strategic consulting, not necesserily in McKinsey or BCG; Deloitte of AT Kearney or Accenture will look greate. When I was applying I liked cunsulting academy Kelley has and Kelley's ties with consulting companies announced on the website (Deloitte, Accenture, AT Kearney). However, alumni and lots of guys on gmatclub forum say students have hard time finding job in consulting after Kelley. Moreover, none of this companies are listed in employers list of 2010 (except Deloitte). Do you think it worth going to Kelley or should I try to improve GMAT and apply for higher rated schools such as Duke, Darden etc with stronger ties in consulting.
thanks!

I highly recommend speaking with recent alumni in the region you plan to work in (US? Europe? Russia specifically?) for insight on the job hunt. At this point, to apply elsewhere means another year of waiting and a potential risk of not getting in if the activities of last year (when you were busy applying) didn't add to your profile and show growth. So before you reject the offer in hand and age another year, I want you to be confident that you can boost the GMAT closer to 700 (both so you stand a strong chance at those programs AND so that you are recruitable by the consulting firms, who all use GMAT scores in their hiring practices). Obviously, if the job you are aiming for after graduation is not available to you, then the tuition and 2 years of study is not going to be worth it, so yes, do give this serious thought before accepting Kelley's offer. If you are interested in a career in general management, consumer products, or accounting, then Kelley offers a great education and bridge to higher-level roles.
