Brown Econ vs Cornell Dyson vs Dartmouth Econ

Hi,

just got admitted to those schools and I’m planning on pursuing consulting firm in MBB/big 4 and getting MBAs from M7.

in terms of target school wise, which school is the highest recruit among three?

Thanks for your insights!

Cornell grad, go to Dartmouth. It’s as good as it gets other than H/P/S/Y. Easy too.

 

Prestige wise they're all pretty equal with Cornell being a tad bit lower than B/D.

I just think I would fit in the most at Brown. Dartmouth is more of a fratty culture and not sure about Cornell tbh.

My advice to you would just go wherever you will fit in the best, I wouldn't worry too much about placement
