Hi Duncan,
I was wondering if you could help me in choosing between these 4 mba schools.
RIT
Kogod
SUNY Buffalo
Brandeis

Thanks in advance.

What are your goals? Compare the schools using http://business-schools.findthebest.com/ and http://www.find-mba.com/board/33571 then come back with any questions.

PS I'm not the only one here.

My ultimate goal is to become a consultant. "Find the best" ranks RIT better than Kogod so i was wondering if you could throw more light upon this, since both are good schools.

Did you compare them using LinkedIn, using the method I suggested? Think over which consulting firms you'd like to work for.

I would lean towards Kogod. It's not ranked as highly as Buffalo, but it has better salary outcomes overall than the others.

Also, the Businessweek rankings say that its top recruiting industry is consulting. I'm not sure why Findthebest ranks RIT Saunders higher - I would think that its location wouldn't be as ideal to land a job in consulting as the other schools.

RIT seems to be much more selective and to have a higher GMAT than Kogod. Speaking to alumni is alway a good idea.
