I’m planning to apply for MBA programs and I really like Cornell’s program and vibe. What do most people think of Cornell vs other prestigious MBA programs?

I love Andy! But I thought he was Dartmouth for some reason

I think it's a good school, but it's not prestigious. You should think of the criteria you care about, not what others care about

likesmart

I like Cornell because it’s more focused on engineering and tech which is my background. Prestige is nice too though. I care about what others think and feel about me sometimes

I think it was ranked between 11-15 amongst the decently reputable sites. Good school, hold’s brand equity in the long run, but I’d aim for an M7 school and keep Johnson as a back up. The cohort is going to be fun at all the top schools. It’s a recruiting opportunities that you really need to keep in mind.

Thanks! I don’t know if I can get in the M7 but sounds like it’s worth the effort

P1 is right. Alum of Johnson - love the program and vibe (outdoorsy, hard working, self-reflective, with a tad bit of codependency), but apply everywhere. If you love Cornell in the end, aim for $$$ and go (and potentially welcome to the family!).

Thanks. How is the network in your opinion?

What do you want to recruit for? Cornell’s mba program isn’t that well known.

I’ve hired folks from there so not exactly true. That being said, it’s no Wharton.

USC Bovard College reached out to me recruiting for their MS in HR. I never thought about going back to school post-undergrad, but the curriculum looks very relevant to my day-to-day client work, doesn’t require a GMAT, and it’s entirely online. Would it be a waste to pursue an opportunity like this just for the learning? Has anyone either gotten this degree or another MS in HR? Curious how you feel it’s benefited you in HR consulting

Hi all,
Need an advice. I am confused between doing masters or learn tech stack and increase experience and salary.
*My primary goal is to earn more.*
If masters I have to do in US or UK, so GRE, GMAT.
If for learning and tech experience I can learn tech stacks.
But I am confused between this.
Could you please tell or suggest what would be a better choice? Is doing masters in US or UK is a better ROI or be in India and gain exp and earn more by switching?
Currently I am a Java developer.
TIA
