Use the search function. M7(not in order): Stanford, Harvard, Wharton, Columbia, Sloan, Booth, Kellog.
It does not show up when you enter this question into WSO. Also I am aware of who is in the M7, I’m asking what a target MBA is
Target for what? Target for IB? PE? Consulting? All M7 will give you the opportunity to recruit well for those roles.
What about top 15? I don't think I have a great shot at getting into an M7. How would, let's say Dartmouth or Duke stack up in terms of opportunity relative to M7? What if you only got into a top 20 such as UT, are you still a "target" for those 3 industries you listed?
Target for PE/VC: HSW
Target for MBB consulting: M7 + T10 (maybe T15)
Target for T2 Consulting: T20-T25
Target for BB IB: T15-20
There are some cases where people make it into paths that their schools are not hyper targets for, it doesn't happen super often, but happens quite a bit depending on your pre-MBA background/demographics, etc.
Those broad buckets are generally right but then they become more granular depending on the industry. For example, at a Wharton/CBS/Booth you have much higher odds of landing at an EB (Evercore, PJT, Centerview, Lazard) than if you went to other T15-20 schools. Of course, there are exceptions (Stern is still great for IB, so is Darden) but that's the idea. I'd think of it more as a sliding scale of desirability for groups/firms.
Fairly accurate. T25 does fairly well for MM/smaller boutique IB firms too.
There are some schools that are a target for an industry. E.g. Stern for IB, Fuqua for Consulting, Anderson for media
