This is Hillarious. They do case studies for accounting at HBS.

This article just screams bad data. They probably lumped in clerk positions that don’t require a 4 year degree in their median salary calculation. There is no way the 10 year average is only 67k for a person with a 4 year degree.

I’m one of those bringing down the average though but that’s my fault

Associate at an AmLaw 100 firm doing patent work. I applied to a part time masters program to try to pivot to a different technical field (still doing patent work, but in something that interests me more than what I’m doing now). Do I try to stick it out at the firm while getting the masters, ask for a reduced hours schedule, or get a part time, non-legal job so I can focus more on the program (one year).

Hi fishes,
I am currently working as a Data Science Analyst in Amex and would like to make a switch to Fraud detection/Credit risk modelling in future.(not in a hurry but would like to start preparing for the same)
How should I go about preparing for it? Is MBA the only course?
My current tech stack is Python, Pyspark, Hive, SQL, ML, DL(specifically NLP based). I have already done MS in CS from IIT Kgp.
I am confused mainly cause the tech stack requirement is similar to my role in the company.

Are schools even considered in the resale value of a house? Thoughts and insights appreciated!

The other would mean taking a year off work and pursuing the LL. M, Thanks for help

EMBAs — what was your mindset/approach during your program? Did you prioritize school over work? Vice versa? Neither?

I have a few questions for people in consulting roles (both external/internal).

My partner is in corporate banking, but he wants to switch to a consulting/strategy-based role. I noticed people with those jobs typically have an MBA, and also majority of the job ads in similar roles has MBA as either a requirement or preferred qualification. So:

1) does MBA actually improve someone's chance in getting those roles?
2) are there any good Canadian MBA programs you'd recommend?

Thank you all!
