Thanks, I know this thread is kind of nonsense. It all depends on my own choice. I just wanna hear everybody's opinion and form a well-thoughted decision. thanks to all CDers.
Man, let's put aside Tuck vs Chicago first. Simply seriously ask yourself, whether you definitely wanna a IB job? By saying this, you need to re-evaluate your career aspiration, the importance of your family time, your hobby, your self-respect and even your health condition. If you still say yes, well, you got a big problem because as a banker, I will tell you both Tuck and Chicago has significant chance of get-in. Now you probably need to think specifically about which bank you prefer. For Chicago, its alum clustered in Goldman, CSFB, etc. For Tuck, it might be easier to enter Citigroup, Lehman and almost every tier II bank.
Remember, whichever you choose, you are sold to banking. It's the biggest trade off you gonna made. Listen carefully to your true heart before making the choice, think about the people around you. Good luck!
