So I failed to get BBIBD or MBB coming out of my semi-target school. And I'm trying to find a job now before applying for M7 MBA programs.
Is it true that top business schools have rough quotas for people from every industry, and people from finance and IT are at a disadvantage because of the disproportionate amount of people applying from these fields (unless you're at a top BB/MBB)? If so, what kind of career path would yield a higher chance of admission, all else equal... should I drop everything and go work for a non-profit for the next couple years? After the MBA, I plan to try again for BB IBD. Thank you all!
