UT McCombs BHP vs. USC Marshall

<p>there are two places I would love to live... Texas and Southern California. (I live in SoCal, and grew up in Texas).
I intend to apply to either of these schools, but was wondering if there are any major concerns about either one of these programs
Why choose one over the other?
Will going to one, instead of the other, REALLY put me at any sort of a disadvantage?
Any opinions on em?</p>

<p>thank you</p>

<p>Where do you want to work and live in the future after you graduate?</p>

<p>Since you are a CA resident, you should also consider UCLA Business Economics.</p>

<p>BHP is tops.</p>

<p>Blackstone, Bain, McKinsey, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley are all rated as top recruiters for BHP. You get more attention by being in the honors classes and BHP has their own advisor when it comes for jobs and all that too.</p>

<p>BHP for sure. It's been said to be second only to Wharton which is not surprising considering its recruting, attention, and academics. It is pretty hard to get into (near ivy-like stats), and very well respected. </p>

<p>For the regular program (McCombs) its a toss up between the two, but I would give Texas the upside because its cheaper if you are a resident.</p>

<p>I always saw it as, I apply to both (possible Wharton and whatnot, but I really dislike the NorthEast), and if I get into both, I would choose BHP, and if only one and not the other, I wouldn't be unhappy.
I was just trying to get... well the exact answers I got.
thanks</p>

<p>UCLA IS always an option</p>

<p>What does BHP stand for?</p>

<p>Edit: nevermind, honors program</p>

<p>Hmm......
I am surprised that I am not seeing our mister trojanman here.....</p>

<p>personally, i think the choice should be more where you want to work after you graduate. USC will obviously give you more opportunities in california; while Mccombs is relatively unknown here.</p>

<p>Exactly...
I think I want to stay in SoCal... However... Texas is Great to... Although, would i be limited to Dell ;)</p>

<p>if you want to live in cali, then USC hands down its probablly better connection than bhp, especially in SoCal</p>

<p>yup, if you want to live in SoCal then I think employers would be more impressed about Marshall than McCombs honors. If you want to live in Texas, other way around.</p>
