Kelley MBA Worth it?

I recently submitted my B-school applications to multiple programs, but would receive in-state tuition from Kelley, which is arguably the largest in-state discount among the Top-25. Granted, Kelley has lately been a fringe T25 program in the latest rankings, so wanted to see if anyone has had any experience / input in the value of a Kelley MBA. I am not considering IB at this time, and would be more looking into Consulting, Corporate Strategy, or Tech. I know these are very broad / different tracks, as I don't really know exactly what I want to do yet, but am largely trying to get a feel for the overall job quality and breadth available through Kelley.
