Congratulations on your two amazing admits!
I will probably start by saying that there’s no wrong decision here but there a slight preferences. It’s a little bit of a challenge since the job opportunities you’re targeting have a conversion rate of probably 1 to 2% Ventri capital in private equity a highly competitive and favored people with previous experience which you seem to have. However, it’s hard to make a choice based on something with that level of conversion.
In terms of finding a job out of school, booth has a strong finance focus net work and you have a lot of classmates who are focused on PE and VC. It may seem that you don’t want to compete with your classmates but there are benefits to have strong numbers. You’ll have clubs and joint trips and recruiting sessions and invitations to various speakers, etc. Booth is strong in PE and Finance and will help with recruiting or at least getting an interview.
Sloan is no weakling but not as focused on Finance. And of course the strongest value it will address the international name recognition. It would potentially be a more recognizable long-term name. At the same time, I don’t really talk to people about where I got my MBA often… perhaps just when I chitchat with my kids friends parents while watching a soccer game on the sidelines. They’ll hardly care about where I got my MBA, and much more interested in my sons soccer moves 😂 different world.
Anyway, back to the decision. I will probably be more leaning towards Sloan in large part due to international name recognition should you have to recruit in Europe as well as overlap with tech startups coming out of MIT.
Arro44 - you probably have a much better perspective. What do you think?
What would you do?

In my opinion, for 5-10 years post MBA, no comparison at all between these unless you have a $$$ offer from Booth. I'd choose MIT Sloan. Irrelevant and you may already know, at MIT you can also cross-register to other best universities in Boston including HBS.
In long term, nothing matters.
