[quote=Anonymous]I passed through Madison recently and was quite impressed with the campus. I was not shopping for a college at the time. I just wanted to see it. Flyover country (where I also live) is not considered cool right now. That's a prejudice based on some tough economic realities. Most of the Midwest flagships get some discounting because of location. Of all of this, the thing I think OP most needs to challenge is the presumption that the American Dream is tied to working at a place like Goldman Sachs or McKinsey. Based on my experience as an MBA from a top school, I think that's quite rebuttable. I started writing up some examples from my experience but it seemed a bit petty, so I think that's best left for OP to discover. I bet there are Wisconsin undergrads with MBAs from other schools at these elite firms. The first step would be to try reaching out to them for advice.[/quote]
