Hello NYC 🐠 - Looking to sell GMAT prep materials. Just scored 750 and these books were instrumental.

Is anyone attending ACTE Region I this year on March 11-13? Our school is one of the exhibition schools to visit.

I just got a long-term sub position (~4wks) to kick off a new kinder class. It’s my first time with public school Kinder, and I am NERVOUS! Any tips and tricks for routine and building class unity?

Enrolled in Stern for a few weeks.
The number of the alumni and current students that go to top consulting firms FT& summer intern are countless even for a small class size.
Stern is way more than a finance school. Given its location, do you want to spend your 2 years in a rural area or heart of Manhattan? Location is almost everything for business school. (I have a friend in Cornell that frequently travels about 5 hours to NYC for events.)

I’m currently working as Help Desk in the IT industry and I’ve been doing tech for about 15 years, but I am currently in school and close to graduating with my Associate’s in Psych. Eventually I want to pursue CyberPsych and mix my passion for IT and Psych. The thing is, I hear from many people that you need a Master’s in Psych to do anything in that field. Any A.A’s graduates that can vouch? 🥺

Hello! It seems this bowl is not very active but I'd like it to be. So here's my story: Born & raised in PR, moved to CA for undergrad & have been here since then. I graduated from law school in 2019, followed by a 2 yr bk clerkship. I did the evening program. I really enjoyed law school, in spite of the microaggressions, the late nights, & crazy competition. Love all things diversity in the law. Anyway, currently looking for a position in NYC/DC area. 🤗

Hello
I have completed my BCom in 2018 and done CA IPCC Grp 1 with 3 years Articles experience, currently working as an Accounts Executive in a Pvt Company since 2021
I am currently learning SAP FICO S/4 HANA and was wondering if I join PGDFM will that be considered as equivalent to MBA when I apply for new jobs?

I have been looking at the curriculums for Harvard Business School's Master of Business Administration and Harvard Extension School's ALM in Management. They both have the same requirements (generally speaking) including a capstone course that serves as a field immersion course with the Master's in Management, which is fairly new. If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?

If you could start your MBA degree over what would you do differently?

Took Executive assessment today and got a score of 161 (IR -12/ Verbal -11/ Quant -18). Is this good enough for Berkley Haas EMBA ?

Funny how HR and tech managers reject your candidature without taking interviews.
I have scored 100 in maths in 10th and 12th and had 8+ cgpa from a premier Institute yet they don't find me worthy enough
Bet jealousy is very rampant now.

If I don’t get my green card this year (after being in US for 12 years) should I just move to Canada? What are the prospects? I have been wanting to get an MBA. Should I just go there to study? I am mid 30s with a kid so there will be some adjustments. Anyone did this?

I want an MBA, but I have way too much debt from doing an out of state undergrad program and I know scholarships are great but unless it’s close to a full ride I don’t think it’d be enough for me. I’m the trailblazer in my family so I really just have myself to rely on. I’d like to hear about everyone’s experiences with (or plans for) funding their MBA. Please also include any amount of debt you currently carry from undergrad + the cost and length of your MBA program.

Anyone who has done evening/weekend MBA from Kellogg’s Chicago… would like to know how taxing was the schedule and how it helped in career.

Hi ..anyone here who made a transition from a technical role into Data Analytics? Was an MS degree crucial to do so ??

I am currently earning 13.5 LPA fixed with two years of work experience (management consulting) and passed out a top B school (Top 30). I wish to purse my PGP from ISB next year for career progression and brand value in my CV.
Would it be worth considering my current CTC and previous MBA?

Finished Stern interview and think I have a good shot of getting in. Trying to determine if 200k is worth it for an EMBA? The debt scares the shit out of me. Thoughts?

Hello, I’m a certified occupational therapy assistant and looking to utilize my bachelors in healthcare administration to transitioning my career into a more non-clinical role.

I used to have panic attacks because I would fail exams and get low grades, but looking back, I wish someone had told me I was capable of finding success even with all my failures. If anyone is a student right now, know that it’s going to be okay and you’ll make a fine engineer one day as long as you persevere through your setbacks

Heard on-cycle interviews are likely kicking off this weekend/ next? If a firm hasn’t reached out to me for a coffee chat at this point, should I expect that they’re not interested in interviewing me?

I am contracted employee in a company . I am assigned POC work .No design or document, just my manager sent a video of youtube saying that we have create similar feature . Since there is no proper documentation still manager is forcing to complete it by next week end. There are many hit and trials I am trying and giving him daily report of what I have tried and what worked and not worked. Still giving pressure.
He says "I don't bother you work for 1 hour or 10 hour per day". What should I do?

It is too damn hot to work today. Taking the rest of the day off 🥵

What was the march today about? Was it some Independence Day?

Hi fishes, what is the % of your salary that you save per year?

Got admitted to Kellogg and Ross so far, no money at Kellogg but 40k/year at Ross. Chances I could use that to leverage some money from Kellogg? Guessing maybe not because they aren’t really peer schools but curious everyone’s thoughts

My undergrad degree is in gov but I currently working on consulting for PE right now, with dream goal to end up in VC or PE post-MBA. Practice tests have gone well for both GRE & LSAT but lower GPA from a public Ivy, so not sure what’s feasible.

Applying to HSW R1 with my significant other. Anyone else in the same boat or have any tips?
