To be accepted in a top-10 MBA program: BCG or Citigroup?
Hello;
I am a junior at college. My objective is to be accepted in a top-10 MBA program. I've got offers for summer internships both at Citigroup and BCG.
What is the best option to be accepted in a top MBA?
thks
You're a fucking idiot.
jesus kid, you are a junior and this is your summer internship, it will not have any effect on where you will get accepted for an MBA.
Wrong
BCG
Is this real? Both Citi and BCG have sent hundreds of people top top 10 MBA programs. Decide if you want to be a banker or a consultant.
McDonald's. It's a big company with a lot of overseas growth potential
^I second the post above. BCG and Citi are shit companies. McDonalds offers great training and exit ops to places like BK Capital.
Honestly, though, I think working at a boutique like Five Guys Partners or Sonic Capital will give you the kind of hands-on deal and modeling experience that you won't get at a bigger place. Plus I heard they have SICK exit ops because their MDs will really go to bat for them. Just don't get stuck in a group like DCM (double-cheeseburger markets) or else you will never have another job, ever in your life.
Clearly BCG. What will you be doing in these roles?
BCG not even close.
BCG.
I would say BCG, but it really depends on what you want to do. If you go to BCG ONLY because of the better chance of getting accepted into a more prestigious MBA, then you're a fucking idiot.
OP,
It's not about where you worked but rather what you did when you worked. Bschools, other than HBS, want to see career growth, leadership, impact, etc...Simply having BCG or Citi at the top of your resume isn't going to get it done.
yeah... but to the extent that a brand name will get you into HBS, Mckinsey, Bain, BCG are right up there with the megafunds. Went to an HBS presentation recently... 25% of the class was consulting, and you can bet that the large majority of that was MBB. (by comparison, banking was only 15%, and there are a LOT more bankers than consultants at MBB)
