To everyone reaching out to MBA students for coffee chats or help, I recommend not proactively directly/indirectly insulting the school we attend before you even hit apply or get in lmao. 🤣

If you have a valid concern or question, frame it thoughtfully and show you've done a bit of research and put in some thought.

The worst is when they say "Yeah I'm not trying to aim too high that's why I'm applying to your school" 💀

Lol yeah, and then when you check back on them a year later, they couldn't even get into your program or any MBA program. 🤣 They ain't as good as they think they are. Hope they fare better during recruiting — companies are less gracious about their lack of professionalism and tact.

How is everyone planning their family vacations? Specially looking for people with kids.

This feels like a lot, or is everyone spending this much?

My colleagues
Just to put some intro
I am 22 years after college experience and worked in consulting for 15 years and currently in industry for 7 years.
My long term goal is to go back to consulting more of a business advisor from a strategy perspective
Here is my question
Would MBA be any good for me especially looking at strategy side?
I don’t want to spend $200K and would probably go online MBA in a mid tier school. Are those any good?
Looking forward to your great input on this topic

Im strongly considering an MBA. Only thing that deters me is cost. I’ve heard of some tier 1 firms that will offer tuition reimbursement for returning interns post-MBA, how common is that? Also considering pivoting to a firm that offers scholarships. Any tips/insight on this? Thank you!

Does an MBA (US) make sense for me? Male, Indian, Age 32, Married working in tech consulting with 10 YOE. Base is $165 with steady increases and bonus is typically 15%. I eventually do want to cross the $300K threshold but I know stopping work for 2 years and getting and MBA probably won’t get me a $300K job right away. Becoming a manger in my current company/path will probably get me there in terms of TC. Also considering EMBA from a good school (Wharton Global, Duke, Kellogg, Booth).

Is it possible to get into HSW? Thinking down the line of applying - went to Princeton for UG and currently working in IBD for a not too well known investment bank. 750 GMAT 3.8 UG GPA.

Worried I just won’t get a look or judged too hard if I’m not coming from a top tier banking firm (messed up my summer internship and it’s haunted me since) - how much does that matter of prestige of bank vs the industry you’re working in and what’s the best advice in being able to go to HSW?
