How good is Wash U for job placement in NY area or placement in graduate schools?

I am a senior seriously considering applying to Wash U early decision. I intend to go back to NY after college, maybe work for a couple of years, then apply for an MBA program. I know Wash U is a great school, but does anyone have any statistics on job placement after graduation in NY or the Northeast in general? Also, are there any statistics about placement in graduate schools such as MBA programs or law school?

From the business school's website.. this has been posted before on this forum:

From purely anecdotal experience, Chicago seems to be the most popular destination for b-school graduates, with NYC being a close 2nd... DC, Boston, and St louis are probably next in line with popularity.

Wash U undergrad b-school is ranked #1 for MBA feeder school by Forbes magazine this year.

Thanks. Can you point me to a link for the article from Forbes or do you know what issue that was in?
