Knowing the deadline for CBS regular round got extended, is there still chance to get in with above average stats and good story? This covid got me thinking that MBA might be a good option rn

Or all the spots all filled already? Can folks help pitch in

Does CBS even allow for deferral?

You should try. I’m going to CBS and they’ve said they’re still encouraging/reviewing applications. If you don’t get in, you could try for ED or J term in a few months’ time.

I don’t think so, given that it’s such a unique year (in that a lot of folks who weren’t planning to apply this cycle now are). If your app is strong, the reason for ding wouldn’t be your candidacy but the number of spots. That said, I’m also not admissions so can’t say. You could reach out to admissions and ask!

My boss assigns projects with unclear expectations and provides no guidance on how to achieve them.

I've asked for help, and, to avoid a long post, she expects me to figure it out. Perhaps you go through this too, but when I don't have a clear guide on completing big projects, it paralyzes me because I don't know where to start. On top of that, I have anxiety, so "it has to be perfect".

How do you approach projects when your boss plays the "guess what's in my head" game?

So I have been seeing a guy for 4 months. We have a pay disparity.. he earns less than I do (by quite a bit).

I think we are beginning to move past this, but now he’s starting to mention things like ‘I am really broke this month’, and last weekend he told me his mum has lost her job and he’ll have to probably pay her rent. I have a lot of sympathy for his situation … tbc

I know it’s a big investment and I’ll be rewarded for ir later on, but the thought of it still scares me. I would love to get someone’s thoughts on this! Is the experience very different? Will I be exhausted if I do the part time? Is there something I’m not considering when it comes to the Full Time?
