Darden vs. Rotman?

p200002

对于中国学生来说,找工作是读书的最主要目的,所以是否登陆加拿大在这儿毫无意义.记住,你要考虑的是你毕业时接触的就业市场.加拿大的身份是垃圾(我这
个人就喜欢激进,尽管我已经是加拿大公民,有份不上不下的工作).拿美国身份确实难,如果你有了一个好学校的MBA,前途完全不同.如果你做这种决定还犹
豫的话,呆在国内算了.

I'm a Darden 2007 student.  My name is a long story. Sorry for confusion.

If you want to be Canadian Citizen, Roman is absolutedly your choice, and only choice.

Highly recommend you to come for Campus visit. The best way to know a school is to visit it and sit in its classroom. It's valueable to spend some money on research before you make the huge investment.

I really should have made myself more clear, all top 20 US schools are great schools.  However when I apply, I have to seperate them into several tiers so that I can pick ones from each tier and increase my chance of being admitted.  My rule of thumb is H/S = mission impossible tier, 3-10 = tier 1, 11-20 = tier 2, sorry if I offended you in any way.

As far as Canadian Citizenship is concerned, I would not say its garbage at all.  Becoming a Canadian does not mean that you have to stay in Canada, I have seen so many investor and business category immigrants spending 2-3 years in Toronto doing nothing just for getting their status.  Their main purpose is to have their assets protected, plus their children can go to school at a much lower cost.

独上高楼

basically, it makes sense. however, in fact, there are no top 10 or top 5 terms in mba ranking. only elite 3, m7, top 15 (actually there are 16 top 15 schools).

同意这个。个人觉得，TOP 15（其实是16所）都差不多。

总有人拿校友网络说事儿。darden的是小，多伦多的是大。但是大而无用的东西没有人要的。

有时候一个program的中国人多了，绝对不是一个plus。Chicago的placement最差的时候，是中国学生最多的时候。玩命扩招的学校，谁也不敢上的。

希望楼主看看两个学校的人都去了什么地方，再决定。一个简单的统计数字可能掩盖了很多事实。

Rotman都已经开始给offer了，那么早啊，楼主是什么时候申请的，请问？

sorry, I only had the offer from Darden. I am not sure if it is worthwhile to apply for Rotman. This is a hypothetical question I raised here in order to compare both MBA programs. Sorry for telling a "lie"...

ivjasmine

那要恭喜楼主了，Darden是个很不错的地方

  大家不会介意这个假设的，呵呵

Don't worry about it. Darden is a second-tier school. period.

Darden lacks behind the first tier school in many regards such as students, CAREER opportunities, brand name, etc. etc. etc.

Elite3: HBS, Wharton, Standford?

M7:  What does M mean?  Which schools?

Top 15: ??
