<p>Just wondering what would give better job opportunities in the field of finance. I know that UVA consistently has higher B-School rankings, but I also know that SMU has great connections in the Dallas area. Also I thought it would be easier to get a top job from SMU because it seems like it would be easier to rise to the top of the class with not as smart kids. I know SMU is pretty smart, but I also know that UVA has an extremely challenging environment in which all the kids have 32+ ACT, etc.</p>

<p>Thoughts???</p>

<p>IMO, go for the school with smarter classmates. If you work your butt off, you can probably top them, and you will look even better if UVA is well-known for being more selective.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t worry too much about connections. Work for that high GPA, then NETWORK a ton with companies that interest you, and you will succeed.</p>
