Does an MBA at Oxford or Cambridge have any weight? They are not ranked as high as Insead, London Business school, Wharton, Kellogg etc etc. but I imagine the name is what carries?

Oxford and Cambridge are good MBAs. However, their MBA programmes are not as strong as the others listed above. MBB /PE will target LBS/INSEAD in UK/Europe

Thanks for clarifying!

If you only get into these, not everything lost. They have decent recruitment and alumni.

OP, will Accenture sponsor your MBA?

S&C. But pretty much relegated to tech transformation. Nothing exciting in that imo.

This is going to sound like an insane question but I keep reading comments in various threads saying that a 760 GMAT in the banking / consulting / PE world is pretty average and won’t help an application. If true, what is the alternative? Retake for a 780??

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.)

Working on some law firm applications tonight and it sucks that I know that I am so capable and have a strong work ethic but firms can’t see beyond grades or the fact that I didn’t go to a t14 law school or prestigious undergrad. I’ve worked twice as hard and feel like I’ve barely even gotten half as much. It’s discouraging sometimes especially because I worked so hard with pretty much no guidance (first gen, poc, low-income) to get into college and do well and then get into a t30 law school

Looking to apply to MBB at 1-2 YOE after undergrad. Undergrad GPA isn’t bad, but not MBB quality. Will it help if I take the GMAT early and include the score on my app? How high is good enough? 750+?

I feel like I’ve really mucked up my early career choice. I enjoy mechanical engineering and I do believe that it CAN be a broad field, but nowhere near as much mobility as data science, business analytics, consulting, etc. I plan to get my MBA in the future and transition to project mgmt, but that’s well over 5-7 years away. Has anyone felt like they made a bad choice for undergrad, or do I just need to give myself more time? Currently an R&D Engineer at a private food/bev manufacturing company

Looking to transition out of Management Consulting and going into big tech in NYC. Ideally, I would love to go in as a PMM; however I’ve heard it’s very difficult to make that jump if you don’t have a degree in engineering or CS (I’m a liberal arts graduate and in the final year of a part-time mba). Should I look to apply as a program manager role since it’s more likely my consulting experience will apply to that and see if I can transition into a PMM role from there?

I'm trying to frame my answer to the leadership question. I once talked to my mom about how I was selected as CEO in a group project. It was because of my strong technical skills+connections(I already know 80% of the group)+activeness. My mom said that's exactly what she values in the professional setting. Can I answer the question in this way during interviews? I feel like it's not the common approach since this answer does not involve any specific actions, but could potentially stand out.

Really struggling with attrition right now and we seem to be a cycle of countering people, trying to keep governance but being reactive! Any ideas on a reward strategy which enables us to be flexible when we need it but retain a degree of control so it doesn’t get out of control?
