It’ll be the best two years of your life.
The tuition and other fees for top MBA programs are at 160K - 220K. And be a full-time student without incomes for 2 years.
It depends on the caliber of the school - and where you are at vs. exit opportunities. If you start out on IB out of undergrad you don’t need one unless you want a career changw
