MBB - Should I continue my studies at Bocconi?

Hi there, 

Bocconi is an excellent school that will allow you to get an invitation to MBB recruiting process in Italy, hence if you enjoy it, I wouldn't kill it for LBS. 

Good luck,

Lucie

Hello!

Bocconi is an excellent school. Furthermore, you don´t know whether LBS would admit your next year. Depends on what other implications those schools have for you (it can´t be only consulting chances for sure), but I think Bocconi is a pretty solid choice. 

Cheers,

You’ll be fine. 

I got selected by Bain for their TalentHub and I have interviews coming with BCG, McKinsey and two T2. I come from a public university from Italy. Once you get to the interview, your performance will be more important than your background.

If I could go back, and if I could afford it, I would study at Bocconi. 

Since you are already at Bocconi I personally do not see any advantage of paying more money to do a Masters at this point. If you truly want to join MBB, get into an MBA program at LBS, INSEAD or a top 12 school in the US.

Hi there,

The opportunity at Bocconi sounds like a great one!

Careful: You're risking trading a “maybe” for a sure thing! Bocconi is a great university. 

The other question is what would you do with the year in between if you didn't pursue the Msc? It's important to compare what the alternative is here, as in what would the job be and would you be happy to continue with it if you were not accepted into LBS?
