Went to IU MBA reluctantly because of scholarship $$ came out the other side loving the program. It’s not a cliche the people running the program truly truly care. And I don’t mean just care for your job. They care your life and you as a person. Plus Bloomington is a very fun town with lots to do.

What’s IU’s placement into PE/VC? Looked at the career report and it was very high level. Saw a handful on LinkedIn too but was a mix of undergrad and grad

Eh. Not a bad program, but you can do better.

Meh. I went to IU for a masters program (not MBA) and yeah it’s okay. Most people who get into IU can usually do better but end up there due to a variety of reasons. I think biggest draw is Bloomington as a college town is a ton of fun and you will meet some amazing people. Apart from that there isn’t much to it. I would say it’s a great last option

Does anyone ever question the possibility of going to law school?

I’m a 23yo female legal assistant working/living in Canada. I am completing my BA in hopes of continuing with law school after. But, I just turned 23 and I’m anxious about my love life and starting a family. I haven’t had a boyfriend since 2019 and I’ve poured my heart and soul into my education & career.

I’ve always wanted to go to law school since age 14. But I also want a husband/kids. I don’t feel like I can have both.

New York folks:
Are you aware of the CPA exam credit extension to 2021 for NY CPA candidates impacted by COVID19? It’s on a person-by-person basis and you need to request the extension. Has anyone tried doing this yet? Can anyone shine more light on this? The extension would really help me, but I’m not sure what more to tell them in my email than the fact that I couldn’t sit for the exams this Spring/Summer due to test centers closing in NYC.

Hey Friends, need help!! I am a developer with 1.6 YoE, got placed on-campus (NIT), can code well in Java and Python, but want to move into an analyst type role as I am not sure if I can be a good 'developer'.
Is it an ideal move for a long career, or if I want to do an MBA in future?
If so, could you please suggest how to prepare for such roles in good companies?
I feel a little lost with a lot of self doubt, and possibly need some counselling on this too. Suggestions are welcome.

I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.
