Background:
- I am working for one of the top strategy consultancies and will have 4y of work experience (manager level) when attending business school.
- Focus of my consulting studies is around tech / software.
- Background is in computer science
Future direction:
- I want to get a feeling for finance and thus spend my summer internship in an investment bank
- Post MBA: If I like it, tech investment banking. Otherwise Business / Product development for a start-up or major software firm
- Long-term I want to work in Europe
I hope this information is sufficient?
Thx a lot!

Congratulations! Great choices to have.
• Definitely don’t need to apply to any other schools. Wharton could have been an option if you had PE/VC goals. Given your Investment Banking goal, both Columbia and Booth will give tremendous opportunities.
• It might come down to a city choice - do you want to spend the next 2 years in NYC or Chicago?
• If i were you, I’d go for Booth. I visited Columbia a couple of years ago, and the facilities are really disappointing. I haven’t visited Booth, but haven’t seen too many people bringing up facilities as an issue.
Good luck!

Wow great options. I really would not waste your time applying to the schools listed for R2 given your development goals. You can’t go wrong either way. But this really comes down to city/lifestyle preferences. Both big cities but there is only one NYC and if you want to intern work in nyc eventually you will be right in the backyard of the big banks. Booth certainly places well in nyc as well but as far as networking and really getting a feel for the industry you might want to eventually be in, CBS feels like it would give you a better opportunity to do so. The cultures of the school are also a bit different so def go to the admit weekends meet your future classmates and make a decision there. Follow your gut here it won’t let you down between these fantastic options!
