Notes:

I want to:
- get into NYC IB
- shift to London/Zurich after 3-5 years of working in the US

Is the following correct?

Darden: stronger presence/brand in the US finance space

Anderson: stronger presence/brand in Europe but that'll be less relevant once I've done a few years in the US (?)

(scholarship isn't important to me)

Thanks!
