I am 9 months into consulting, but have an interview with one of HSW should I go to bschool if accepted? I applied because I don’t like consulting and think client services isn’t for me.

Then what do you want to do after bschool?

I thought W is a clear tier 1.5 compared to the ~4 schools in T2?

Totally depends. Some questions to ask:
1) are you in the right position financially to do so?
2) do you have specific goals in mind as far as next job?
3) is that move achievable without an MBA, or would attending school be the best step to achieve your goal?
Plenty of other considerations, but just the initial thoughts I had.

YES GO! Your aperture of possibilities will open well beyond banking and consulting. It’s worth the investment beyond a doubt.

YES! the doors it will open and the network it will give you access to are unparalleled. Good luck with the interview 😊

Yes but get 2 years of work experience before you start bschool, your cred for post mba jobs will be stronger.
