Bocconi BSc Management vs. HSG
Hi! I'm a 20-year-old from Norway that is struggling to decide between Bocconi (BSc in Management, formerly BIEM) and the University of St. Gallen (Assessment Year followed by a major in Business Administration).
I'd love some input from people who know either school.
My long-term goal is management consulting (e.g. MBB) and later private equity, ideally in continental Europe or Norway.
A few questions:
Pressure and workload: How much harder is it to get through the Assessment Year at HSG compared to the first year at Bocconi?
Masters: Which bachelor gives a stronger starting point for top programs like the HEC Paris MiM or SIM at HSG?
Employers: Which degree is better recognized by employers in continental Europe (not the UK), especially in consulting and PE?
Anything else you think I should consider, such as student life, networking or internships?
Thanks a lot!
