HULT IBS Questions

by BosRoGMAT » Thu Mar 04, 2010 9:34 am
Hi there! I would like to know a little bit of everyone's opinion on HULT IBS in comparison to a few. I see that their 1 year MBA seems to be pretty well reputed. And very interesting to me. And I believe that I have a good chance to get in.

Little bit about me:
Undergrad Suffolk International Business
GPA 2.3/4.0 with CORE courses (finance, business) all at A or B+ level. (yes I know I messed up first two years but last two are good.)
GMAT expected 650-680ish after about 6 more months of study, currently around 600 (I have all the kaplan materials.)
Also expecting to be taking CFA Level 1 soon and passing.
Work EXP around 3 years in Finance/Management/Real Estate.
Recommendations: Not a problem
Essay: Not a problem

Looking at their post-grad numbers and placement firms:

What is interesting is that their statistics are quite similar to those of much bigger schools such as BU:

https://management.bu.edu/careers/gradua ... anies.html

Can anyone tell me how they are considered compared to the following MBA programs, as well as my chances at ALL the following please:

1) Suffolk University
2) Northeastern University
3) Babson College
4) Bentley University
5) Brandeis University
6) Boston College
7) Boston University

I am looking at Investment Banking/Financial Analyst/Financial Associate positions post MBA at a reputable Financial Entity (does not have to be top 5, although of course preferred.)

Expected entry: 2011.

I'm interested in finding out what your decision was. I'm applying to Hult, Suffolk and Boston-Uni too. Let me know what you decided and what info you found out.

Good luck with your applications.

A diffferent approach, something I wanted to do for a long time but is in the realm of science fiction for many: US Air Force Intelligence.
