Hi All,

wondering if anyone has done an online MSc in Data Science (or similar). How was your experience? In comparison to say the a typical online data science course/certificate (e.g. google advanced data analytics, Coursera).

I am thinking whether it is worth the extra money in the sense that you will not the same value for money as a normal full time in person programme (tutors, professors, networking etc). Found one about £8000 and there is flexibility in terms of the completion time.

Just scored 700 on my GMAT and I feel like a bag of crap. For reference, I put in 300+hrs into my studying, which is overkill but the course I signed up for took this long.

I wanted to use this to strengthen my app to BCG as an experienced hire and possibly for an MBA in the future.

For the MBA programs I'm looking at this score is fine but is this a score that can help my BCG app in a MCOL Canadian city?
