Notes:

Post MBA goal - consulting in the DC/DMV area because my spouse is working there.
Why Darden - Very strong alumni presence in DC with stronger consulting recruiting.

I'm primarily scared of the Darden's bootcamp reputation. Ross seems more chill.

eliot Verified User. Likes Earned: 1899 Congrats on your acceptances to Ross and Darden. Both are great programs with strong consulting career placement. Given your desire to work in DC and the fact that your partner is currently working in DC, I recommend that you go to Darden. Darden has great ties to the DC area, and you can regularly commute to DC on weekends to see your spouse. (1)
