We like sports and we don’t care who knows!

Is there anything similar to the INDIRECT function that I can use to build a formula reference to another workbook? INDIRECT creates errors when the referenced workbook is closed..

Generally how long are on sites? Are they all on one day’s block? The entire 4 hours?

Any good books / courses on futures trading?

The older I get and the more I think about raising my own children, I keep thinking how can parents frame religious duties like fasting as something to look forward to. I think volunteering as a family can help install the value of giving back and zakaat. How can one make Ramadan and Eid something to look forward to when holidays like Christmas seem to be purely joyous occasion that one doesn’t have to put in work for like fasting for Ramadan?

I’m a first year associate (almost second year). I work at a national firm and I’m not a litigator. When I started with the firm, I was told I could work out of any office. Long story short, I regret choosing the office that I chose. I’d like to transfer to another office - is that a difficult ask? I’m licensed in the state I’d like to transfer to. I don’t know how to make this request.

How would I go about finding a recruiter for a career switch? I have a finance background and am currently a mid level in big law. Looking for a hybrid position, but I only have experience with recruiters who recruit for other big law positions. Any ideas for how to start looking?

I am generally uncomfortable when I’m around my mother-in-law’s husband.

While he is overall a decent guy, his anger issues, yelling at his wife for the slightest issue, and insulting nature makes me uncomfortable and triggers my own anger due to his blatant disrespect for just about everyone around him.

My mother-in-law says he’s worked on things, but it’s been 10 years of this and I’m not sure I want such behavior around my wife and our kids since we’re trying to conceive soon (cont).

Kellogg, Booth, CBS, Haas, SOM - please rank for someone looking to return to consulting but stay in healthcare long term.

Is anyone else having trouble adding the First Day event on the Booth app?

Do we need to send the official score to all the scores or is unofficial schools enough?

GSB admits- is there something similar to the estimate your aid tool at HBS? Anecdotally heard they had one last year but can't see anything on the portal.

When should you reach out to people for rec letters? How many schools should you apply to for round 1? If rejected, should you apply for the same number of schools round 2? Thanks for your help!!

Going to Wharton in the fall. Is it worth going MBB over returning to big 4 (sponsored)? Is this a common path?

Does an MBA (US) make sense for me? Male, Indian, Age 32, Married working in tech consulting with 10 YOE. Base is $165 with steady increases and bonus is typically 15%. I eventually do want to cross the $300K threshold but I know stopping work for 2 years and getting and MBA probably won’t get me a $300K job right away. Becoming a manger in my current company/path will probably get me there in terms of TC. Also considering EMBA from a good school (Wharton Global, Duke, Kellogg, Booth).

Did you get an interview invite to Wharton? (Options in comments)

Should you have your recommender mention specific future career titles in the letter? My recommender did and I’m wondering if its okay to ask to them to leave it vaugue as my essays are slightly diff

Accenture tech consultant vs KPMG Management consulting for top MBA exit in a few years? Which one will look better?

R2 applicants, are you planning to send recommender gifts (if any) in time for the holidays or after the application deadlines in Jan?

I regret not applying to Harvard. I never thought I’d get into a top school and then got into wharton with a 100k fellowship - which changed my entire perspective. It sucks thinking “what if…”. I just didn’t have the confidence and thought wharton was a reach so why bother with H/S 🙃 hope this inspires someone to just shoot their shot - you never know
