No, it'd be absurd to wait another year. Sloan is better than Columbia, peer with Boooth, and only slightly worse than Wharton.

Unless you really drop the pooch, you can easily get into BB IBD from a M7, hell most people from Duke/Cornell who recruit for IB make it in, and Sloan is a tier or two above.

You just see less people doing banking at sloan because quite frankly there are better options in tech and such for those folks.

 

Agree with OpsDude. It would be a big mistake to let the Sloan opportunity pass for a chance at getting into schools of the same caliber.

There should be effectively no opportunities closed to you from Sloan that would be available from the other schools mentioned

 

Go there and don't look back. You can make it into IBD from there for sure. Network hard, prepare for interviews and you'll be fine.

I'm talking about liquid. Rich enough to have your own jet. Rich enough not to waste time. Fifty, a hundred million dollars, buddy. A player. Or nothing. See my Blog & AMA
