Best undergrad business schools

Wharton is the outright #1. Undisputed.

Then you have , in my opinion, MIT Stern,
then Michigan Ross
Berkeley/Haas + NYU Stern
UVA Mcintire

and the rest are inconsequential…

However, in terms of sheer recruiting, it looks something like that (not exactly, but close)

Tier 1- Wharton, Harvard, Princeton, Duke, Dartmouth Stanford (low because i’m talking about NYC- they kill west coast obviously), MIT/Cornell/Yale

Notice I’m putting them in tiers, because all of those schools are targets, some more than others, but there are reasons behind that. For example, Wharton has a very self-selective admissions process, and pretty much all of the kids that enter Wharton want to do Ibanking/Consulting. Harvard dominates Consulting, but for some reason has less of an edge in Ibanking (Personally, I’d still take a Harvard kid over a Wharton kid anyday, all else being equal). Those are the two “Super-targets,” just for the sheer amount of kids they send. The rest are obviously huge targets, and it will depend on the individual student’s performance that will determine whether or not he or she lands a job.
