Ex GTer, Current IB here. I got into Booth and Kellogg’s MBA programs. If my goal is to pivot to PE in 2-3yrs, which school should I choose and why?

Both are good choices combined with your IB experience. Be sure to network with your IB contacts BEFORE you leave IB so that you can leverage them while you are in the MBA program.

Oh, my personal preference would be Booth.

Current Booth student. DM if you would like to chat about the program.

Halfway through my data science masters degree at a top program. Business/stem undergrad.. Contemplating a part time MBA/emba after.

Is this worth it? I know career goals are a factor but I just want an idea of how having a stem masters help my chances. I'd be about 32 depending on when I started a program.
