is it that some ppl on here say that a CPA working at a big four would not be a good enough candidate for a Haas, Sloan, etc type program. Are those ppl exaggerating or is it true? I would like to work at a big 4 and get for my MBA at a top25 program. Dont all the BCGs, GS, McKinseys, and Bain & Co.s of the world only care about who you know and what MBA you have? Or does accounting put you a a disadvantage?
