Even with 200K scholarship from darden, I would not choose darden over chicago .  If there are other factors, that's a different story.

200k scholarship is a lot of money...depends on your career goal. If finance is what you want, then go to Chicago, which is the BEST mba finance, even better than Wharton (no offense to Wharton aspirants).If general management is your goal, then I don't see why giving up Darden..

anyway, you have strong background and will be successful whichever school you choose. Good luck

Thanks for your words, windboy~ I love your expression, hah!

Actually, with an engineering background, I need to do lots of homework on finance before enrollment.

First of all, Darden is also a great school. I have a friend who got great intern offers too.
However, keep in mind that Chicago is relatively less torturing than the school in Virginia, which offers a case based program.
Don't get me wrong. You can still work hard here in Chicago, but it all depends on you, meaning that you make your choices for trading off certain things

Thanks, fannyyudan

Yes sure, Darden IS great indeed. Actually I do feel terrified by Darden's case based program and its heavy workload.

In Chicago, at least I have alternative choices. But I'd better not show too much mercy to myself... Otherwise, those employers will not show too much mercy to me as well when I look for a job...
