And Tuck/CBS but Yale offered the most

We've guided our StoryCrafters MBA clients to non-need merit based scholarship funds from M7+ for anywhere from $40K-$120K and in some cases full rides, based on the strength of the apps we helped them craft. You should not expect to receive these scholarships funds from HBS or GSB, but our clients have received substantial $ from Booth, Haas, Kellogg, MIT Sloan, Tuck, CBS, Wharton and more. We've also worked with our clients on leveraging one financial offer to receive even more money from another school. This has to be done strategically, but it's very possible! Good luck

I started in big law M&A 8 months ago and I’m super miserable. I don’t love the work or the stress/anxiety that comes with deal work. I also feel like I’m not picking up on it as fast as my peers/able to juggle as many deals at once as the firm would like. I’m thinking about making a switch to in house work, preferably commercial contact work. Seems like the hours and stress would be more manageable in that type of role. Any advice or insight?

Hi All, just sharing what on mind to vent it out from my system. Maybe with this I could gain some insights and inspiration.
I have been working as a data scientist since 2018 & have been the bread winner. I have neither been under a proper mentor nor with a team of peers from my field to help me out. I was alone and confused. I have never really got the chance to prove myself which makes me all the more depressed. I'm not sure what to do with my future, indecisive and low on confidence.

Heading to an M7 soon from a tech company where I work in a product-adjacent position. I didn’t need this degree to “break into” product management (former company would have let me transition), but I still figured it could be good for the long run.
