I am in the same boat! Math has never been my strong suit and it’s extremely evident through my cold practice exam. Verbal scored 82 in first try Quant is another story!

I am taking E-GMAT and hoping for the best! We got this! At least you have months of study under your belt. I just started in Feb.

Anyone think working from home becoming the norm will have a downward impact on salaries? Anyone impacted by geographic adjustments? Salaries are generally mapped to regions at pwc.

My colleagues
Just to put some intro
I am 22 years after college experience and worked in consulting for 15 years and currently in industry for 7 years.
My long term goal is to go back to consulting more of a business advisor from a strategy perspective
Here is my question
Would MBA be any good for me especially looking at strategy side?
I don’t want to spend $200K and would probably go online MBA in a mid tier school. Are those any good?
Looking forward to your great input on this topic

Genuinely curious question: why do so many international students want to get MBAs in the US... it’s hard for them to get work here, with Trump it’s hard to even get and stay here, so what’s the appeal?
