Darden has a good reputation for practical learning over the rest of the schools. Also I'd like to become a consultant and Darden sends a good number of students into MBB
Course Curriculum
Course is great. There is a lot of case based learning which I really like and benefit from. Professors are fantastic. You also learn a lot from your peers which is really good.
Faculty
They are renowned across the academic world and some of the best profs I've ever had in my student life. Some have industry experience as well which adds an extra flavour to their teaching
Placement
Darden has a good reputation within consulting companies both within the US and globally. McKinsey, Bain and BCG are frequent visitors to campus and hire a good bunch from Darden every year.
Accommodation
I do not live on campus for the time being therefore this question is not valid for me.
Exams
My score: GMAT 700/800, quant: 49 verbal: 36, TOEFL score 115. I took both in 2019
Events
Campus Life is a miss for now considering the current pandemic situation. I hope to reach campus next year and be more involved with in person activities. The school has done a good job of getting students together virtually and I feel like part of the tribe despite the current situation.
Scholarship
No
