If I'm honest with myself, I dread going back to school. This is my third year, and it hasn't gotten easier. How do I get through it?

Hi All,

I’m new to this bowl. My experience is in accounting but I’m looking to transition to defense sector consulting. My undergrad degree is in criminal justice and then went the business route for grad. I’m looking to get back to my roots. Does anyone here have experience in weighing Georgetown’s SSP program (or similar) versus an MBA?

TIA!

What's your one regret from your time in the MBA program?

I just graduated from a nontarget in Dec 2020 & am currently interning at PwC before I go back to do my Masters. My initial plan was to accept my full time offer and slowly work my way into IB.

I see postings right now for FT IB analyst programs. Should I even try applying online?

Ik recruiters don’t really read cover letters, but I learned about banking rlly late into college. i’m the daughter of blue collar workers who don’t speak English so I never really knew what jobs were “prestigious”

Any advice appreciated!

The opening is for L8. How much offer I should expect from mastercard??
