anon24646 Likes Earned: 4 The two career options are consulting and tech. Yet to fully decide if I am up for the 70 hours+ a week. The alumni network in my home country is not that great for any school. Definitely top management shots from most of these schools but few really come back after school due to loans and lack of options. US is priority 1 location and Canada as a backup. Another slight thought going my mind is the H1B lottery thing. Would it be worth considering going for full ride at Carlson with stipend? Would I have a shot at Google and Amazon with my Technology Project and Program Management experience? (2)

anon20747 Likes Earned: 50 I'm not the right person to weigh in on H1B/STEM/lottery things, but if you are looking at Tech as well, I think that moves Tuck up, given proximity to Boston and NYC. If you can make a Tuck or Darden work by any means necessary and have the risk appetite, I think that is where the edge would be. (3)
