IU Kelley or Vanderbilt
I got into both and I was wondering which one would it be easier to break into elite boutiques, my goal is Lazard. I went a top 5 public school and I would say I am decently smart. So can I do better job wise being top at iu Kelley or being mediocre at Vanderbilt because everyone prolly there is really smart
Vanderbilt- not even close (assuming financials are not a factor). Vanderbilt is an elite school academically and also fun. Can’t say either of those things about IU. Recruiting wise, assuming your qualified good GPA/internships etc, then you should be competitive at most places. My BB hires a ton of kids from there.

The IU Kelley bubble has really been pumped up on WSO. There really is no debate here - Vanderbilt is a much better school and will provide you with much better opportunities
I'm a Vandy alum so I'm biased but honestly don't think you can go wrong there. Had the time of my life and really didn't want to leave, the city / school are a blast.
On the recruiting front, can honestly say myself and most people I know who wanted to be in IB and took recruiting somewhat seriously ended up with offers. The school is respected and there are a lot of alumni on the street, who in my experience are very willing to help other Vandy grads. For context, I'm at a BB, a lot of people I know ended up at other BBs, and quite a few at EBs as well - think there are 3 off the top off my head who I know at Lazard since that's specifically where you're targeting.
