  Both schools will give you amazing opportunities, but I think Harvard wins by a nose because of its unparalleled brandname.

  Wharton and Princeton are on the same level, but Harvard still is a teeeeeny bit better than both.

  Harvard tends to have the most people going into a given firm (for IB/consulting). Except GS, where most are from Wharton.

  Except for this year (where they handed out 100% bonuses to analysts), GS is known to pay street average or worse.

  Goldman supposedly pays the lowest, on average, out of all the BB firms.

  Goldman is known to pay above street for higher level people (VPs +) and lower than average for analysts because people are willing to work at GS for less just because of the name brand and superior exit opps....IF all you care about is money, the best bet is to join one of the top boutique firms such as Lazard as they pay above the other BBs.
