Is Northwestern part time MBA really worth it if you don’t live in Chicago? I would have to move for one quarter (only around 3 months), but I have a fiancée and a house. Is it really that much better than Berkeley (T10 I could do fully online with a few immersion weekends) or Georgetown (T15)?

No part time or online program is worth it. You need to go full time or don't go at all.

My background is in tech transactional. I joined a cybersecurity SaaS startup at the end of last year and now also handle more generalist matters in addition to all things commercial-related. I have a number of books on contracts that I’ve found super helpful over the years (The Tech Contracts Handbook, A Manual of Style for Contract Drafting, Sign Here, etc.). Can anyone recommend books they’ve found helpful for L&E matters, privacy matters, product matters, or marketing/advertising matters?
