does anyone know how many Stanford places into MBB? SB's to be given

I'll be giving out silver bananas until I run out to good responses.

Does anyone know how many Stanford places into MBB each year? (For undergrad).

I'd also be extremely grateful if anyone can comment on the overall level of interest in consulting and the level of competition for spots.

Rough estimates or other comments welcome.

Thanks guys.

shorttheworldlook at businessweeks ranking...

Somebody has this information readily available for undergrad? I've been looking all over the internet and WSO for this but couldn't find much. If I missed something obvious, my apologies for asking a stupid question. Would you mind pointing me in the right direction?

 

Pretty high amount of competition for MBB; lots of interviews given out (all sorts of majors) but people are filtered out fast; I'd ballpark ~10 / firm

Thanks for your input. Are you sure, though? 30 in total is more than all of Penn - Wharton and CAS combined. (They publish placement stats). I assume you go to Stanford?

 

Yeah maybe it's a misrepresentation bias because my friends' accounts are overly salient in my mind

from undergrad c/o '11, of the ones i know (so all the humanities people). i'm sure they grabbed some science majors as well.

McK: 4 (7 if you count the 3 that turned down offers) BCG: 4 Bain: 8

ballpark around 8-10 doesn't sound too unreasonable.
