Yep. IIMB alum here.

For quant roles in USA (with no hope of Green Card in this lifetime):

Columbia MSFE >> GATech >> IIM B/C

For much better career opportunities long-term, both in quant and in MBB:

IIM B/C followed by UCB MFE (they have very strong preference for IIT/IIM grads with relevant finance work experience)

For Finance PhD in USA:

IIM B/C gets you into top 10 Finance PhD programs.

Columbia MSFE probably into top 20-50

GATech probably in 50-100 range.


From long-term perspective:

Most of my IIMB batchmates are earning in crores in India. I made a huge blunder by coming and doing PhD in USA. Stuck in USA with no hope of going back.
