People always give you time to think things over. It's sorta funny hearing people on GC trying to give you advice to ask for time to think things over.

Once you accept an offer you should really weigh certain things over:

1) How your schools looks if you leave. My firm no longer recruits from the best business school in the country because 2 analysts left from other departments. You essentially screw your school over and make it difficult for your fellow alums to find jobs.

2) How your resume looks if you have a choppy record of employment at different companies. Not only is it going to be difficult for you to find employment in the future, but grad schools like MBA programs will make it much harder for your entry.

Of course these are things to think about and not hard and set rules. If tomorrow I landed a spot on Trump's Apprentice program and won, I wouldn't give it much thought about leaving :P
