Why is CBS so cliquey? Everything seems so surface level and there are so many social climbers that it’s alarming.

Especially the trips and social media make it worse

That’s NYC for you

Honestly seems no less cliquey than most of the UGs that feed into NYC jobs. Is it really that much worse than places like HBS or Wharton?

Is this like all business schools to a certain extent, or is CBS amongst the worst?

Curious as to how many deals at once is typical for a first year associate to take on (M&A, mostly private equity clients). Deal size is lower middle market and I’ve worked on deals ranging from $1-$110M. 2 deals at once is plenty for me, but it seems like my peers are able to take on more than that at once and still do fine. Maybe I’m just a slow learner/out of my league at the big law firm I’m at.

I am currently working on my MBA in a professional evening and weekend program at a highly accredited university. I am thinking about transferring to a much smaller private online program, specifically because they offer a concentration in organizational health, which directly builds on my doctoral research. Does great depth and specialization outweigh the value of a highly respected generalist degree?
