Management consultant evaluating an offer from Google’s Go-to-market team (Strategy & Operations) in India. Two questions:
1. Given it’s an internal consulting role, are the hours equally bad / worse than consulting firms?
2. Is it virtually impossible to move to a product ladder after spending 1-2 yrs in the role?

Hello, I was in a verbally abusive college relationship and struggled with mental health. Therefore, my gpa suffered greatly (2.9). However, I now have a good job and am doing very well. Should I explain the reason for my low GPA in my MBA app? I’m applying to LBS, Booth, Stanford, UCLA, UCB etc.

To those of you who are planning to apply to MBA: Make sure you choose your recommender CAREFULLY. Really evaluate the person you’re requesting the letter from, their personality, and their relationship with you. You don’t want to be back stabbed like me 🙃

Has anyone recently signed up to take the gmat online prior to may 20? I’m trying to sign up for a slot in the next week or so, but I keep getting redirected to an error page. Not sure if this means slots arent available anymore

Any Asian guys got significant scholarship to t20 schools using the gre, if so what score did you have, I got a 330, worth retaking for a better score if I’m aiming for scholarships?

If I want to go M7 to get a shot at MBB (because my chance of getting into M7 is very slim as of now without a referral 😅), should I say that in my essay (particularly the “Why [M7] essay part?)

Any other RD applicants to CBS still waiting on an interview decision?

I have my table of avg GMAT and all.. but for a 25 year old white male in big4 from a big 10 school with a 3.5 GPA. How high of a score do I need for INSEAD/LBS/M7? Background feels just a bit generic

Does anyone else find it absolutely hysterical that people group MBB/FAANG/PE/VC for the prestige-oriented folks and they never include BB IB 🤣

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.)

Any ways to offset a low gpa (3.45)? I scored a 760 on my gmat but I’m really only aiming for M7 schools. I’m also an Indian male who studied CS at a top ranked Engineering School.
