You've been spamming a ton of posts lately pretty much asking the same things. If you go to a good college, you'll be fine. If on LinkedIn you can find a lot of people from a school at a firm, you can infer it's a target. If you go to a non-target for a firm, you can still get an interview if you network. Chill out.
The usual suspects max chances with resources on campus -- Wharton, HYP, MIT, Stanford, Columbia, Chicago, Duke, NW, UMich Ross, Brown, Cornell. If you're at one of these, it's all on you to make it happen but nothing's stopping you from getting the job.
The next semi target list would prob be Vandy, WUSTL, Rice, CMU.
