Dartmouth vs. Duke OCR?

Hi everyone,

As a high school junior I've started thinking about where I want to go to college, and considering that I want to go into finance, particularly Private Equity after undergrad (yes, I know it's very difficult but one can only hope...) I have narrowed down my top choices (schools I am thinking about ED'ing to) to Dartmouth and Duke. I have visited both schools and love the atmosphere at both of them, but I was wondering how OCR compared for both from the finance industry? I know the BBs recruit at both places, but regarding boutique firms and PE firms such as Blackstone and Lazard, how is OCR at each school?

Thanks!
