Duke MMS vs UVA MS Commerce (Finance Track)

Hey everyone

I know this topic of DUKE MMS vs UVA MS Commerce has been discussed on this forum but that was way back in 2013 and I am guessing that there have been considerable changes in both the programs since then. I have been admitted to both these programs and am very confused between the two of them.

Some background info: Law undergrad from India. I am looking to enter strategy/management consulting after my masters. Ideally I would like to work in US for a few years before heading back to my home country. I am okay with working at almost any location in US apart from down south (Texas etc.)

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks a lot.
