Just wish to know opinion of people here. I am aware that this is not the best forum for this, but just wished to see if people can contribute to this: How much do you think is the Darden School of Biz (univ of virginia) MBA worth for jobs in I banks? it has the case study method and particularly strong in Mgmt/ Strategy What if some1 wishes to go in Financial Consulting which would be a mixture of Finance and Consulting… Any input is appreciated…
darden is highly regarded. read about the profile in gmatclub.
Its a target, isnt it?
Yes…both bulge and middle market (Harris Williams loves them Hoos)
Thnx for the inputs… I noticed that it is highly ranked and considered an awesome school…and talking to students and visiting the campus…i have realized that there is an awesome faculty…and in 2 yrs…the teach a 5 yr material making the program rigoros but paying… but my only concern is that darden is known only to people in the industry …tell anyone harv…stanf, wharton…even ross or colum etc etc…everyone knows…say darden and u get…huh?! I know i have to impress a recruiter and not a taxi driver…but well…this fact still stinks :-/

I was surprised to see that Darden and CFAI share the same bulding! CFAI lies on the campus of UVA. Though the whole building is censored as in you are not allowed to go beyond the front lobby…
They say if you want to get into banking, you have to go to a top-15 MBA. I agree, and UVA is on that list, so your golden…
