Interned at a T2 during summer and got a return offer. Return offer gave me confidence to care less about the M process. Also noticed that I got more mature with understanding and structuring a case. Then identified and prepped with the right people who gave quality feedback.

I would like to transfer my career to Healthcare Data Analytics. I’m gaining my data analytics certification by the ending of November.

Any idea. How is IIM bangalore 2 year weekend MBA?

The beginning of my wife and my journey - let’s see what happens from here. We both came from very poor families and have had to take loans out to pay for everything. I just graduated from MBA and she from dental school, combined we earn ~$330k and will likely continue to see that amount grow and provide better lives for us and our family. Just a reminder that we all start in different places and no one should be disheartened by those who are more fortunate. Each persons path is their own.

May be a dumb question here but feel like I have to ask. I’m a 1st generation college grad, I come from a blue collar family, I went to a no name liberal arts school. After 1 YOE in government I worked my way into B4, now 3 years later interviewing at MBB.

Considering my background, will I be an outsider?
