Are there any Columbia MBA students in here? I have an interview with them and was wondering if I could chat with you about your experience in program. I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Guy,

How can I get into Microsoft without an MBA in a Program manager role?

I am currently an Associate Product Manager. Overall Exp 4yrs.

Is it possible to get in or MBA is a must...

Enrolled in Stern for a few weeks.
The number of the alumni and current students that go to top consulting firms FT& summer intern are countless even for a small class size.
Stern is way more than a finance school. Given its location, do you want to spend your 2 years in a rural area or heart of Manhattan? Location is almost everything for business school. (I have a friend in Cornell that frequently travels about 5 hours to NYC for events.)

Posted about this a while back but didn’t get a definitive response. I have a bunch of Manhattan prep GMAT books from the past few years that have little to no writing in them. There’s probably 20 of them so pretty heavy but I’m looking to give this away to someone for free. Only thing is I asked for you to take all of them versus just a few. I live in downtown Manhattan near the stock exchange and hoping to give by the 24th. Thanks!

Most overrated top 16 business school....

I would appreciate your perspective.
I am currently working on my MBA in a professional evening and weekend program at a highly accredited university. I am thinking about transferring to a much smaller private online program, specifically because they offer a concentration in organizational health, which directly builds on my doctoral research. Does great depth and specialization outweigh the value of a highly respected generalist degree?

I'm about to start my part-time MBA. Already feel like dropping out...

Hearing of layoffs with some Chicago agencies. MSL...Porter...Ketchum...others? Sign of bad economy coming? Hate to sound skittish, but I lived through 2008

Do you take the current economy into consideration when receiving job offers? For example you receive a good offer from a company like Meta/TikTok but are hesitant because they could be laying off soon or rescind an offer versus a lower offer at a more traditional and stable company that tends to be less reactionary with regards to layoffs? Not my current scenario but just curious. I would like to make a move from current employer but this economy has me spooked.

Has anyone experienced difficulties with speech/thinking through taking anti-depressants or from suffering with long term depression? I first started noticing difficulties in articulating my thoughts at university and my career in consulting has only made this more prominent.

I am meeting with my old VP of HR for lunch soon, they got let go after a few months with the company.

Hi
Would love to get your opinion on this-
I am planning on applying to business school this year in round 1 and round 2. I am in india working at D. I have received an offer to work with another big 4 in London as manager with their consulting team starting June. The role is definitely a step up in terms of responsibilities from my current role as a senior consultant. Do you think it might hamper my business school application changing jobs so close to round 1? Have been at D for 4 yrs

Is Kellogg brand equally recognized in the business world as MIT? Or does MIT have the upper hand?

I have a month left till my GMAT. Should I start solving the official questions timed or solve more untimed until I feel more comfortable? Asking because TTP is religiously advising on untimed strategy, but I’m currently struggling with timing especially CR; untimed sessions often make me take 3-4 minutes per question (80-90% accuracy). Thanks!

Has anyone who interviewed R1 for Stern heard back yet? I’m seeing initial decisions we’re supposed to go out 12/1 but my application still says “we hope to release your decision shortly”

Any Sloanies or Sloan Admit’s in this bowl who wouldn’t mind sharing some tips for the interview? Wondering how technical it may get or what general vibe/questions asked are. Thanks so much!

Anyone applying to Tuck? Did you get a personalized email from the admissions director a week or two after the deadline? Trying not to get too hyped about nothing...

Lenovo thinkpad or Dell XPS? Truly overthinking this..

How does updating your application work? If I submit apps to schools in R1, and then get promoted in the early fall, is it possible to amend the application to reflect that?

Planning to apply in Fall 2020, taking the GMAT in March.

What are your thoughts on Hult International Business School? I heard EYers can get their MBA through them for free virtually.

Anyone go from MBB/T2 to MBA school and do something OTHER than return to consulting / go for high finance? Curious what your return on making that decision is and if it’s ever worth going if you’re already in consulting. Seems like most non-Consulting or IB jobs you could just skip the MBA.
