Yesterday Italy O1.5 was -125, now -145 hmmm

Is the principle of “last in, first out” true? Due to accept an offer in Big 4 which is experiencing a lot of demand (and likely will even more so in recession) but concerned about current economic conditions

With so much uncertainty in the economy and waves of layoffs that have hit tech especially hard... do we think there's really such a thing as a recession-proof job anymore if you're not an "essential worker"?

Any New York attorneys come across any interesting or helpful case law lately? Reading a recent update, there was a decision that said where a parent uses a temporary order of legal and physical custody to exclude the other parent, it's within the Court's rights (with other factors) to interpret that as an inability to coparent and award custody to the prior non-custodial parent. Share away!

Do any programs have a lower average age? I’m planning on enrolling at 26, would be nice to be with people closer to my age

What programs are considered the most fun? My undergrad was a commuter school and felt I really missed out, so it’s number 2-3 on my important list. Schools I’m looking at in order of preference: Michigan, Duke, NYU, Cornell, UNC, CMU. I might take out CMU and put UVA in there but the case study rigor makes me hesitant.

I have been looking at the curriculums for Harvard Business School's Master of Business Administration and Harvard Extension School's ALM in Management. They both have the same requirements (generally speaking) including a capstone course that serves as a field immersion course with the Master's in Management, which is fairly new. If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?

Kellogg or Booth part time? I have four years of corporate finance experience and looking to transition to more strategy/Corp dev.

Wharton Interview thread: comment your stats, gender, race, industry, and outcome below

Hey y’all, so I’m in a bit of a predicament: I just got admitted off the Kellogg waitlist but am enrolled at Columbia (both offering the same scholarship money). I’ve always loved the Kellogg culture / campus and felt that it would better prepare me for a career in tech product mgmt (limited prior exp). However, given that CBS orientation is a few weeks away, I’m a little uneasy about suddenly uprooting from NYC to Evanston. Am I really at that much of a disadvantage if I stick with Columbia?
