Considering mba

Hi there fellow monkeys!

I want to first start off and say I’m a recent bachelors grad. I’m starting with a BB(think baml Jpm wells citi) I got fortunate enough to land a decent rotational gig. I’m considering doing my mba heavily while working or finishing my rotations and going to an Ivy. While working I could attend chapel hill, duke, or wake. If I waited n scored well on the gmat I would rather try to attend Cornell, Colombia, or Michigan. Ultimately I want to get into banking but I have a feeling my chances r slim to end up in Levfin or Dcm w/o the help of an mba. Need some guidance from the forum. Thanks!
