It has really met all of my expectations an exceeded most. My main goal was career oriented and Booth (along with all other top tier schools) offers so many opportunities in so many areas. Even in not-traditionally-Booth areas like marketing or tech, there are tremendous opportunities on campus and the booth name goes far.
I would suggest to future applicants to definitely go to Booth, specifically if you're interested in quant or math coursework. I chose to come here because I wanted to learn the hardest material if I was going to take 2 years off of work. Grade nondisclosure helps with this, and the open curriculum allows you to take whatever. Based on my internship nd conversations, it sounds like the opportunities are the same everywhere in the top 7, but Booth's real differentiator is the rigor of classes and the openness of coursework.
Professors are so hit or miss, especially in required courses. Also, 2/3 of the classes may be horse fudge (any class about leadership, any class about managerial decision making, etc). I learned this and only took classes that I needed the support to thrive, such as big data or financial time series or PHD classes. Don't pay over 6k for a class that is a glorified leadership self help book taught by a low level academic dweeb who has no real leadership skills.
From Uber to Goldman Sachs to Google to Pepsi to Pfizer etc. If you go M7, you'll have your pick of opportunities.
