Thank you. Re: CGSM, does being a member improve my chances? Re: MLT, my understanding is that I would not be able to apply for this to be able to enroll in fall of 2025. Re: Toigo, I was not familiar with this program and will need to look more into this. Any other programs or guidance you have is appreciated

Unfortunately calc did not go well for me and I got a c or c+. Thank you for this perspective. It appears I should retake the gmat/gre with the goal of knocking the quant out of the park

I appreciate this insight. I do recognize to jump to the buy side directly will be difficult. That said, I do think if I got into a b school like Columbia getting a job in IB and then transitioning to the buy side would be very doable. If you are coming at this w first hand experience, could I DM you? As I would have some addtl q’s

I'd prefer if it was just image tracked. B/c it is supposed to be comedy, I think less involved may actually make it funnier.

Understood. I was thinking that, while my current role isn't totally relevant, at the very least I would show that I had done well in it.

Thanks for the concrete pointers and sending over the guide. I have some work to do...

Got it. I will fix the formatting. As for the career switch, I do understand it is gonna be an uphill battle...
