Notes:

Really wanted to settle in the Atlanta area, while aiming to pivot into MBB consulting or Tech after over 5 years within the assurance unit of Big4. While I was drawn to Emory due to their high placements to the MBBs, but being debt averse had to stick with GTech, given the full ride.

anon75143 Likes Earned: 70 Great example of a student fitting the school instead of a student trying to fit themselves to a school just because that school has a higher ranking. Tech has lots of connections to large operations heavy Atlanta companies like Coca-Cola and Delta which is why they have such great operations placements. They are also cheaper than most B schools even for out of state. I'm curious to know though what the decision process was like even with that large scholarship offer from Rice? Good luck at Scheller!
