I’m planning on going to KWEST! Have heard that that’s when people really create their close social groups. For me, that’s a big reason I chose Kellogg (culture) so Im looking forward to it. You’ll meet people in your section regardless if you don’t go to KWEST.

Somewhere I saw that 85% of Kellogg students go on KWEST. So you wouldn’t be alone, but you’d be the minority

I’m doing the same - working til the very end. I see KWEST as my little break / ease into b school 😁 but to each their own! I’m sure you’ll make friends regardless

KWEST leader for this year here. It can seem expensive but I think this is one of those things that you just need to do or you will regret it. It will be a blast and it’s a great way to meet your class.

Eh idk about specifics of other trips. Also I think you choose like ten and get one of those so don’t get too set on anything.

Hello Fishes,
Just a little weird question, suggestions will be helpful.
My cousin wants to enter into the IT industry but his graduation is from non Tech (B.A). So I have suggested him to persue and MBA in IT or MCA may be from distance learning will also help.
Please give suggestions which will be the most feasible way to enter the IT industry, given that he is financially not much sound but he is very smart and hardworking.
