I have a background working almost entirely on accounts in human pharma, animal pharma, agriculture, and sustainability - basically entirely regulated, specialized scientific products on B2B accounts. But now I'm in my mid-30's, I'm getting burned out on the agency grind. What do people pivot to from... let's call it a midlevel scientific creative?

Incoming MBA, I have my tuition paid for and rent covered (I will be an RA). So the only thing I need to pay for is food and entertainment. Do you think 20k is enough to last me through the 2 years?

Or… should I take a small loan?
