GSB no $$$ vs Wharton half tuition? For someone not totally sure what they want to do. Sponsorship from McK is an option as well.

Obviously take GSB and don’t look back

Yea GSB with sponsorship. If you get a better offer than going back to M, the sponsorship is basically a 0% interest loan for those couple years.

It’s possible that it’s selection bias given few HBS grads come to SF for tech 🤷🏻‍♂️. Similar to how I rank Haas higher up given its proximity

GSB easy. I promise that if you find a better role than McK after graduating, you won’t have any issue paying the extra $70-80k.

There are firms/people that will only consider GSB since they too got into the club. You’re buying a social insurance contract, so get the best one.

Wharton deadline was Monday- how are you still deciding?

No didn’t choose Wharton, just never had debt before and the prospect is scary

GSB, obvious decision. 70k will make literally no difference 10 years down the road

GSB is hands down the best MBA program for tech/VC. If it's something else, could see a case for the big W.

Anyone here who has been retained by PSL? If yes, how was the experience? Do they really pay d bonus even after 2 years?
Would it be good to stay back instead of switching?

Thanks!

Anyone have undesirable side effects from the meds that you take for depression or anxiety? How do you cope with them? For me, the side effects are the lesser of two evils, because the meds themselves are working for me.

I take Bupropion (Wellbutrin), and is effective in helping me with my depression, but the side effect that I experience, memory issues, is pronounced and bothersome. My psychiatrist and I tried reducing my dosage, and it lessened the side effect, but it became quite clear that I needed to revert to my normal dosage to address my depression.

At one point we tried a "cocktail" by adding a small dose of Abilify, but that med was disastrous for me, and I needed to curtail it for my own well being (YMMV).
