I think the program is a great option for folks who need that kind of flexibility but it also depends on what you're looking for as well in terms of your career. You might not need an MBA

It's a good option. I would go for it if you want to really push your career.

Heck yeah. Thanks! I'm definitely all ears if you have any other pro-tips about admissions or anything else. Seeing there's still just barely enough time to get my application in for '22 I've been accelerating my Magoosh GMAT review.

It’ll be tough to manage with a job but the effort will definitely be worth the reward.
