I think it also depends on what field you'd want to go to. Its hard to bunch them all into one comparable industry. I mean you obviously can't compare an accountant with an IB candidate or IT with Marketing. I would imagine it really depends on where you stand in your respectable "major" and career track when talking about MBA's. It would also be hard to compare similar industry candidates. Lets take an analyst for Goldman Sachs and another analyst from Perella Weinberg, they've probably had different experiences based on the size of their firm, how closely they worked with clients on deals, and how closely they worked with Partners (managing directors), VP's and so on. Of course being a college student, this is all my opinion.

I'm sure there are some industries that give MBA candidates slight advantages (based on how hard it is to break in to those industries). Especially the bulge brackets and/or Private Equities such as Blackstone or Carlyle but if you bring nothing to the table from your experience in your interview...why would a top MBA admit you?
