Great choice for IB and Consulting recruiting, other areas could improve

Experience during the program

In my experience, Cornell is a great school for banking and consulting recruiting. The alumni network really helps you prepare well for recruiting and make connections. On the other hand, if you want to pivot into VC, PE, Tech, General Management, Cornell is not the best school out there. Immersions in the second semester (IB immersion for example) helps you prepare well for internship specially as a career switcher. But overall, academics need improvement at Johnson. Located in Ithaca, Cornell benefits a lot from close proximity to New York city which helps candidates recruiting for banking go for networking and appear for in-person interviews. Overall, I had a good experience.
