Are any of y’all considering an JD-MBA? I want to go into biopharma post-MBA (already in life sciences consulting) and I think I could benefit from a JD as well. But on the otherhand this might just be a naive thought haha

Do the JD to get into big-law and the MBA to get MBB. Outside of those, just network/hustle. Your wallet will thank you.

Agree with D1 - don’t think JD is necessary for biopharma. That said, I applied to three accelerated JD/MBAs this year so 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hello Fishes,

So can anyone guide me what to do now , is there any criteria to switch the project inside the GL only? How easy is getting to another project with GL?

Partners! I'd like to ask how you differentiated yourself from other senior managers. I get the basic stuff, sell, work hard, client relationships etc, but I'm assuming there are many SMs that boast the same trait. Keeping the obvious aside - what's that oomph factor to reach the pinnacle ?
