Business school career advice

I finished my business school applications to Yale, UNC-Kenan Flagler, and Austin McCombs. My career goal is to work in business development for a long only money manager or a hedge fund specializing in emerging and frontier market equity investing. Please comment meaningfully on which of my schools listed above will help me achieve this goal.

It doesn't sound like you've even been accepted yet, so this strikes me as a potentially stupid thread (because statistically you likely won't get into all 3), but I'll bite regardless. There's a huge difference in ranking, right? I mean Yale SOM was in top 10 this year according to US News, whereas the other two are barely top 25 if that. So - I'd say Yale. Also, don't mean to be a dick, but technically couldn't all of the schools "help" you achieve your goal? I think your real question was which school will help the most. That's the question I answered, anyway.
