Hey fishes, I’m 21M here. Class of 2020, 3.2 GPA from a top 20 target school for undergrad.

I am 8 months into my first consulting job. What is the timeline for someone like myself? I managed to get some 2020 GMAT prep books but apart from that, I’m not really sure what the direction is. Do I just prep, practice, and take the test? I would like to apply for schools by 2024-2025. Thanks!

Need advice. S1 (JD/LLM) in M&A tax at big four in non HCOL area. Is it worth it to switch to international tax at another big four and start as A1 or 2 (likely a pay cut)? International tax seems to provide more exit options in the long run for my background.

Let’s settle this once and for all. Is Des Moines considered HCOL?
