I’m OK with that though it has a potential to really disappoint the OP 😬🤷‍♂️

olufunsho, Are you applying in the fall or are you already admitted to a business school?

Congrats on your admits. I think a tiny bit premature to decide about the decision you have not gotten ;-)
So far Johnson looks like a winner to me but in all seriousness, what if everyone says Ross is the best deal and you never get off the WL, then this will morph into Johnson vs. Fuqua and so on and on.

However, luckily for you, Johnson is the best school out the pack for IB. Both Fuqua and Ross place into IB but Johnson attracts many finance applicants with a third of the class going into finance year after year and many of the folks going into IB (up to a quarter of grads) which creates a steady stream of alums and trodden pathways to recruit for those roles. I would not have any hesitation to pick Johnson really.

-B.
maybe premature, but there is nothing wrong with asking or predicting he might get off the waitlist...thats not the issue here...the issue is which school is best of the three...lets focus on that...not whether or not his question is premature
