I’m an incoming MBA student trying to get into MBB(strategy consulting). I’m torn between two different MBA programs, one is MBA and the other is MBA/MS Data Science dual degree. I’d appreciate any insight on whether the MS degree will add a value. I’m not necessarily interested in the digital practice but I thought the data analytics/AI skills could be valuable across various practice areas. Unless I’m interested in the digital practice, the additional MS degree won’t matter?

I've got 4 years at a staffing agency after getting Masters in HRM and making a complete career change in 2018. Doing full cycle recruiting and account management.

I can’t ever talk about anything that worries me because she just freaks out. We have kids and she has no ability to earn money so leaving would be impossible financially
