Admissions committees evaluate the GMAT/GRE in context — your background, your representation in the applicant pool, the strength of everything else in your file. The same score works for one candidate and falls short for another with identical numbers.

Hi All,
I have been accepted to both Kenan-Flagler and McDonough and am struggling with the decision. I visited McDonough and really liked the campus and school but will need to make a decision before I am able to visit UNC. I hope to get into Management Consulting or VC after graduating and would prefer to work in NYC, DC, Chicago, or Philly.
I'd appreciate any opinions!
Thanks!

If I were in your shoes, I'd probably go with McDonough. They are roughly peer schools rankings-wise, both have MBB recruiting (no idea about VC, but that always seems to be more student-driven, anyway), but you already like McDonough and it's a good pick for the cities you want to work in. At UNC, the consulting firms are likely to be recruiting for the southern offices.
FWIW I visited both, sat in on classes, and talked to many different students at each school. I personally liked UNC a little bit better (students were a little friendlier in my opinion and the campus was gorgeous), but it has a very southern feel and that's not what I was looking for.
Another thing to keep in mind is that as a student, you can typically leverage the entire alumni pool to some extent (undergrad+grad) and I definitely think the Georgetown brand will be stronger for you in that regard.
Let us know what you decide!
