My personal view is that Harvard, Yale, and Stanford kick a ton of ass and grads of those schools will be just fine. For everyone else boutique placement is small enough to not be worth worrying about when deciding between schools.Yukos wrote: How does boutique placement fit into this? If you consider placement into all boutiques (many/most by definition excluded from these lists) would that include enough students to meaningfully change these stats? For Yale at least it seems like boutique placement would be noticeable.
(I realize it would be impossible to capture students going to boutiques in a table like this, I'm just wondering if the very top schools are being a little undersold)
Michigan is the only school I'm aware of that has provided an employer-by-employer breakdown of job placement. If people have particular boutiques in mind they may want to look at this for an idea of how a school in that range might place.
