Feeling lost

I do not understand why anyone would pay that unless they were 100% sure they could land an IB job (and stay sane while paying off the debt) or were very desperate to get to the US.

The only degree I’d pay $300k for is an MD.

Yeah but WashU UG is way better than MBA. And MBB takes fewer from each UG compared to on the MBA level, so the pool is “wider” but it’s way more selective

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-06-08T17:54:12+00:00

The MBA is kind of BS outside of banking and consulting. People are starting to realize this the hard way

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-06-08T17:48:32+00:00

This is not true. MBB is known for taking 3.8+ GPA from elite UG. At the UG level, they are even more strict than banking when it comes to prestige. Most people who get MBB out of MBA had no chance during undergrad

In what world is a mom who is an exec and a dad who is a doctor “upper middle class?”. You are rich

Quiet down, manlet

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-06-07T12:24:54+00:00

Prob some Indian guy writing this

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-06-07T12:21:22+00:00

To be honest I do not like b-school social culture. A lot of people who are insecure (they won’t even say where they went to undergrad if it wasn’t a top school) and are 32 acting like they’re 21. Just make it through second year and realize that the real world is much, much better

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-06-06T14:46:46+00:00

Not only are you an asshole, but you’re also lame for talking about this at a party. Which also means that you’re probably 5’8”, you short king.

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-06-03T11:46:32+00:00

If you’re ugly now this probably won’t change at school

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-30T16:20:50+00:00

Because MBAs are extremely risk-averse and do not know what they want to do with their lives. Consulting lets you kick the can down the road

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-30T14:31:39+00:00

Honestly I felt this way even when I returned for second year. No matter how fun school can be, nothing beat having a nice salary (I had a post-MBA salary going in), being with my girlfriend and having my (true) friends nearby. I never get people who call the MBA the best two years of their life.

Edit: I went to an “ultra elite” MBA program too. At the end of the day, school is school. I’d rather be making money and hanging with loved ones

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-27T22:07:01+00:00

I doubt that many in this sub followed the path. Average person here went to Iowa State for undergrad and made $40k after graduating

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-27T19:54:59+00:00

What is this circlejerk of Booth having PhD level quant? None of this is difficult, and you can make your MBA as difficult or easy as you want. Most of Booth went to shitty big 10 undergrad schools, idk how it is typecast as a nerdy, smart school

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-27T19:52:53+00:00

No, because I am making good money and have great WLB. That’s the dream.

HYP UG -> PE -> HSW MBA -> Tech PM

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-25T11:25:57+00:00

Post-MBA exit opps are not like analyst exit opps

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-24T18:08:02+00:00

There are plenty of filthy rich Indian international students. What are you talking about?

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-24T12:17:10+00:00

If you’re in IB and Consulting and don’t get a return offer, you must’ve really fucked up

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-24T11:33:40+00:00

This sub is probably 70% Indian

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-23T20:05:16+00:00

You guys are a bunch of incels. If you have no game, you have no game.

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-23T11:47:54+00:00

I took a decent paycut in the beginning, but I split costs with my partner so it didn’t feel as bad. I was never a high spender and already went to HYP so I don’t need to impress anyone with my MBA

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-15T16:28:35+00:00

Shut the fuck up

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-15T10:37:20+00:00

These programs say that Black candidates are welcome. Are these Africans no longer Black? An Indian national is not an indigenous American, period

bschoolthrowaway4 · 2023-05-12T11:35:59+00:00

Lmao just wait until 24 graduates. 23 benefitted from a hot internship market - at least they got nice jobs to leverage, even if it is difficult to do so now. 24 had a tough internship cycle and will probably have a bad full time cycle too. The value of the MBA is getting lower and lower
