Do extracurricular activities have to be volunteer work? For example, I tutor students & mentor some of them. I don’t charge for the mentorship part lol.

For those of you who wants to celebrate/protest, “the other side gathered earlier” is not a reason for you to gather.

Breaking more rules/laws does not make one or one side more powerful.

What range should I quote to HR when they ask for what are your expected salary? Current CTC is 10.55 LPA. I have 5 years of big data experience including 6 months of on site project at egypt. Your suggestions are most welcome....

Anyone in this bowl know of a better bowl to join? Seems inactive 😞

AWS engagement managers. What is your day to day like? WLB? Salary? Technical experience? Interview process?

I currently have 5YOE. Very interested in applying to the public sector/clearance side.

Any info helps! Thank you.

Away luggage, Daniel Wellington watches and away pans are marketing gimmicks and not worth the cost. Millennials who bought then because they fell into the marketing traps. There are much better quality products out there at the same price range.

There, I said it. Now come at me with your away luggages.

I've worked at AWS for only a few months and I already hate it.

My onboarding buddy sucks and doesn't train me and can't answer any questions. I get a 1hr meeting once a week.

I like them as a person but I feel like I have no choice but to tell my manager that something needs to change with my training or I'm not going to stay.

I don't want to be an asshole but it seems like I don't even have a choice because I actually cannot do my job since this person refuses to train me properly.

Is 120k base + bonus for young 20 something livable in NYC (Manhattan specifically )

Is it possible to volunteer for animal shelter if i have minimal experience with dogs? I love them but never had them

I mean do you guys notice as well? More and more people on dating apps are in open relationships.

I'm feeling overwhelmed by my workload, but I don't want to ask for help because I fear looking like I'm unqualified to do the job. What should I do?

What are my chances of successfully winning a racial discrimination claim? I manage a Data Science group, for months I’ve had serious difficulties getting anything approved by finance (more than any other department in the agency), last week the CFO finally snapped at me on an email that started to itch the expression “My Guy” where he then proceeded to demand excellence of me, etc… We are piers and we have never had a relationship. Thoughts?

If you were 28, engaged, 4 YOE and just got an offer to join a T2 tech company with over $220k TC, would you go to Ross or Darden at full price?

What are the best schools for real estate? Seems like Wharton and Columbia are generally considered the 2 best but whats the next level? I don't see many real estate specific offerings or placements at a decent amount of top schools

ORM, GMAT: 730, incoming MBB, 3.85+ from top public ugrad bschool.

Hey all, I’m shooting for HSW and M7 schools and recently got a 730 on the GMAT. Slightly disappointed because thats what I diagnostic’d and have been consistently hitting 760+ on mocks. Given a weaker UG background and ORM, is it worth it to retake the GMAT especially for HSW? I know the average is around 730 for admits but would wager its higher for ORM. Thank you for any thoughts!

Just started my MBA part time and looking to get a loan to cover tuition. I’m an international on H1B , any suggestions on whom to approach ? Banks , credit cards etc.. Thanks

Has anyone gone through Tepper’s hybrid program? If so, how was your experience?

Can you recommend any admission consultant you worked with personally and the outcome? I'm an international student and I am not a good writer so will need a lot of help with the essays. Thanks in advance!

I’m a senior at a state school studying finance (3.9 GPA, 730 GMAT). I have internship experience in tax, treasury sales, investment banking, and will be a full time analyst in corporate banking at a BB. I’m Asian and come from a low-income household and was thinking of applying to a few 2+2 programs. Please suggest a few that could be within reach for me. Thanks so much in advance!

Could anyone who had their MIT Sloan interview yet let me know what type of questions they were asked? Thanks!

unpopular opinion: An Mba is one of three things:
1. A ticket to get deeper into the corporate world (essentially buying into the rat race)
2. A 2 year vacation for rich people.
3. A tax that internationals have to pay in order to get a solid corporate job

Can someone please convince me otherwise?
I’m struggling to see how it is worth it, I am 26 and make 100k and the 200k price tags seems like a rip off tbh

Is anyone’s Columbia decision late?

This may be a very stupid question, but for those who have taken out student loans, how much do you take out to ensure you’re able to pay rent etc.? I know you can’t work so are you making sure your refunds cover everything you need?

Anyone have experience working with Fortuna? Would you recommend them?

Coming up on my first year in consulting out of college (State School, avg. GPA). I know I want to do an MBA to hopefully get into mgmt/strat consulting. When is a good time to start studying the GMAT, so I’ll have enough professional experience by the time I apply for B School?

Taking the GMAT this afternoon. Thought, luck, or prayers are appreciated whichever you prefer

A year ago, I was depressed struggling and frustrated. I couldn’t beat the gmat and spent every waking hour trying to beat the tests and only hovered around 620. I was praying I’d be able to get into T20 schools like Emory, McCombs, and UNC. 1 year later I’ve beaten the test and received interviews at Michigan and NYU while waiting to hear from CBS, Tuck, Kellogg and Wharton. I’m in a place I never thought I’d be. It’s been a tough year. But I’m proud im close to the end. Keep trying everyone.

Where can you take free mba practice tests?

For those that went through TTP, how long would you say it took you to finish the program? Not in a rush, and doing probably ~5 hours a week. Just want to gauge the timeline. TIA!

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.)

Anyone get UNC KF interview yet?

For those pursuing Tech Product Management post-mba, any insights into what tech experience is required? I’m in IT Audit and wondering if that’s enough, or if tech companies look for more developer experience. Studied Data Science undergrad as well.
