Hello! I am a K-2 teacher in California. My family is researching our options in other states. We are looking for a more affordable, red state. My 19 year old son is very interested in moving to Boerne. I would like to know what it’s like to teach in Texas. How is the morale? Class sizes? How difficult is it to get a TX credential? Do private schools pay horribly? Thank you so much for any info!

I keep hearing that Booth’s MBA program is rigorous (maybe the most rigorous out of M7). That said, how much more work are students expected to do compared to HBS, Wharton, Kellogg, etc.? I don’t know if this is an outdated opinion, considering a lot of MBAs are very demanding. Booth is personally my top choice for having a flexible curriculum & 2-3 days of classes. But I really want to know what to expect around the “rigorous” label. Does it mean I’ll be buried in coursework the other 2-3 days?
