Chicago Booth

Experience during the program

The program meets everything one could ask for. The flexibility of the curriculum is unmatched and enables every student to follow the academic path he or she prefers.

My classmates are humble and down to earth which is for the most part not what I expected from business school. The LEAD course at the beginning of the first year as well as the housing situation where everyone lives in downtown chicago provide excellent opportunities to find new friends and to network with your classmates.

The recruiting season soon overshadows most other activities in the first year but the school's support to navigate through recruiting and manage your opportunities is great. The first decision most people need to make is whether the want to recruit for either Investment Banking or Consulting.

Even though it is not necessary it certainly helps to already have an idea about possible career paths. There is no need for a fixed plan but eliminating choices
