3 weeks until the GMAT....should I do TTP (advanced)? Have 3-4 hours / day to study. Currently at 46Q.

Do you always need an MBA to get into MBB?

Do T2 consulting firms (think Kearney, OW) and MBB hire experienced professionals WITHOUT MBA (I.e., is a prestigious MBA mandatory in the region?). I already have a post-MBA position

EMBAs — what was your mindset/approach during your program? Did you prioritize school over work? Vice versa? Neither?

Want to prioritize school (mentally) and leverage workplace as a lab to experiment with diff ideas I learn in class (rather than focusing on going above and beyond for the next promo). Is this a recommended approach?

Finally submitted my application to Wharton EMBA! Anyone else applying for May 2022?

Do you think culinary school is worth it? I've been a waiter for a year but really want to be a chef. The people I work with say to just start in the kitchen and work my way up but I think culinary school might get me where I want to be faster. The cost is pretty insane though. Any advice?

Need help guys: LLM in International Taxation: NYU ($65,000) or UF ($22,000)? Is it worth the extra 43K for a NYU degree? If you’re recruiting someone, does it matter to you whether they went to UF or NYU?

I should go study abroad this month, but I am extremely anxious, I’m not excited about my course and overall not ready. Should I take a break and go next year or just do it? I did not think through the course I picked and it is new to the university so I would be in the very first batch. It’s in data science which I know nothing about and don’t even know if I’ll enjoy it. I’m so stressed about what the course will be like and what my opportunities would look like.

For those who pursued MBA or MHA several years after practice, how did you use your degree?

Need Suggestion.

I am the only developer in my team and my manager has assigned me a project in which I need to create a tool from scratch although that is currently running in production build by third party and we don't have access to that code.

I am on notice period and I am 100% sure that project won't be completed before my LWD.

What should I do, I asked him to put some extra team members but he didn't agree, seems like he will add extra team members 2-3 weeks before my LWD.

I’ll give anyone who helps me get hired at a bulge bracket $20k

How long did it take you to receive your first promotion? I have 3 years of work experience, currently at my 3rd agency, and third associate position.

If you’re a GSAPper who has left already for an externship, how do you get notified about your comp? An email?

If you’re giving your last day in the GSAP exit survey, will you still put in official 2 weeks right before? If you’re not also not staffed the week of your planned departure date would Deloitte cut you earlier?

How hard is it to get accepted now? I've heard the acceptance rate has gone down in the last years
