Which Engineering MS Graduate School -> MBB

Hello there

I'm thinking of my graduate school choices recently. My current plan is to go MBB after graduation. I had 2 years of industry experience in supply chains in a traditional program and my intended graduation degree is in Industrial Engineering.

I had my undergrad engineering degree(not CS) at UIUC so uiuc seems easiest choice for me. Yet from my experience, UIUC's not even a target for MBB, esp. engineering students. Bain and MCK occasionally recruit from business school.

Now it seems that GIT has the best IE program here, yet I also heard that MBB focus more on the prestige of the school, rather than your major. And GIT's program focuses more on the industry side and their recruiting successes mostly are on the tech consulting. I'm hoping to get into a target school for MBB consulting.

UMich seems to have a much better engineering program, but MBB seems only favors Ross at UMich.

Although NW has a less prestigious engineering program, would Chicago & MBB favors NW more?

Thanks!
