Hi All, My sister has done Computer Science engineering Bachelor degree and has 5 years of work experience in India. She is applying for MBA at https://www.kenan-flagler.unc.edu/programs/mba/full-time-mba/ and https://kelley.iu.edu/programs/full-time-mba/academics/majors-minors/marketing.html. Her overall goal is to get into Software Product management. Any suggestions if any of these MBA’s can open path in the desired space or if she is better of doing an MS in Comp engg. to further develop deeper Technology skills. Thanks

My degree
Chief
Same here. My degree has gotten me nowhere, only my connections I made. So in fact, I would focus more on the social aspect of college and less on my grades.
I would change my occupation to some thing else. This market is so not forgiving for field service right now
I would go to a much cheaper school, first and foremost. So far as curriculum, I don't know if I'd change a lot. I'd like to say I'd learn languages and engage more with liberal arts. But while in school I was so busying with studying and holding a job that I pretty much did all I could handle anyway.
Being more frugal would 100% be what I would do differently. Start paying on my loans while still in school and being extremely mindful of costs associated with it all. Still working through the debt that being in college gave me, because I just wasn’t sure what I was doing then.
I’d be more frugal and more social. Lots of things I feel like I missed out on, focused on the wrong things/people
I would’ve chosen a different field, something that could be more fun, maybe law or art, but if that wasn’t an option then I would’ve studied more to actually learn something

Not eat as much, be more social, and learn to make friends better
I would do a different degree, something related to Science.
I would start learning and do side projects of my own.
Internship! I had no real-world experience with an academic-only focus. I may have also tried for a non-engineering internship in a gap year to broaden my world view - did that the hardest way, during working years.
I would have had more fun. If I had known I was going to be working random jobs a year and half after I graduated I would've spent more time with people and went out more.
