Aside from European schools, in the US, you have Kellogg, NYU, Johnson, and Duke (that come to mind). Most of European schools are 1-year MBA programs

some schools have started offering lateral entry into the MBA program like cornell i.e. if you got an admit you can just skip the first year and start your mba journey with final year students. does it affect your final placements ?
