It's a business program, not an MFA. Make sure it's spell-checked and you should be okay.

Start now.

If it takes you 6 months to write a few essays maybe you should reconsider your end goal. Plus mba's are a dime a dozen you will not differentiate yourself, that coming from someone with a top ten mba

EY1: what's MFA?
EY2: hu?

I interviewed for an employed role and knocked my business plan pitch out the park, but could tell I disappointed them with my technical. By my own admission I’m lacking in this area as only have 1.5 years experience with a poor manager who only had me focus on biz dev.

They asked me what my salary expectations are but had already hinted my experience would knock me down a pay grade.

As it was 4 of them and 1 of me I said I would email them. How do I play this without lowballing myself?
