Has anyone taken the Math for Management course through UC Berkeley Extension in order to build an alternative transcript?

My undergraduate grades were meh (70% overall where I graduated from) and I did drop out once (from a different college due to family issues)

Background: 29, male, Asian (Afghan-Pakistani) raised in Canada, 650 Gmat on best attempt

Targets: Any T15/M7 schools (best ive gotten so far is Waitlist at Cornell Johnson so im not totally out to lunch with my targets, I think)

People interested in B-school: what are your top schools and why?

I exited to FAANG from big4 and part of me is seriously thinking about getting an mba to go to mbb. Does that make any sense?

Let's brainstorm! How can we turn the school's canned food drive into PBL?

I'm graduating with a Master's in Biomedical Engineering with a decent amount of research in academia (and no "professional experience" outside of research facilities), but I don't want to pursue down the line to get a PhD. I have been juggling the options of R&D in the industry (MedTech, Biotech, Pharma) or Consulting (Life Sciences) for which I don't really have a background. What are my other options?

What are everyone’s thoughts on Chegg (no options play)? Seems to me it will run up before the start of school and gain traction all throughout the semester with a lot of schools going online.

If I go to a non-HSW M7, what are my chances of getting a post-MBA offer from MBB? Just looking for offers/applicants numbers (ballpark is okay).

Would I be dumb to start a PhD?

I just finished my MBA. I’d never even considered my masters until my employer paid for it. My MBA helped me get a huge pay rise and I’ve just settled into a new role that I love.

I’ve just been offered a full scholarship for a PhD in a topic I am passionate about, already an active advocate for and with academics I sincerely admire. The topic is directly for a study I already contribute to every year.

I want to do it, but don’t want to f*ck the rest of my life

Confused on reg 2 yr MBA exit ops: How many internships are there? How many exit to where they interned at (%)? If you don't go to where you interned at, when do you apply to your actual exit career?

Is it worth it to go back to school for a better track to a FAANG company? The division I’m currently in seems like there are no good opportunities, and I have the funds available to finish my undergraduate full time (Canada). I applied to Amazon before for a highly senior position and made it to final interview so I think I would have a better chance for a new grad type role.

Does anyone ever question the possibility of going to law school?

I’m a 23yo female legal assistant working/living in Canada. I am completing my BA in hopes of continuing with law school after. But, I just turned 23 and I’m anxious about my love life and starting a family. I haven’t had a boyfriend since 2019 and I’ve poured my heart and soul into my education & career.

I’ve always wanted to go to law school since age 14. But I also want a husband/kids. I don’t feel like I can have both.
