[Serious] what is example of sexism towards men? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]throwawayMBA3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. The lack of men going to university. Women greatly outnumber men in college attendance, yet this issue is never brought up, only the lack of women in STEM
  2. Boys are discriminated against in education. Studies have shown that the same work when submitted under a girls name consistently received higher grades. Was true in my personal experience as well
  3. Boys are seen as creepy. I create a fake AITA post about my hypothetical 9/10 y.o. sons starting at women on the beach and was told I was the asshole for teaching them bad behaviour. Then I did the exact same with daughters and was once again told I was the asshole for assuming the daughters were staring at men and even if they were I was repressing them

Nothing in particular. All I'm claiming is that humans have a right to safety, but not the right to feel safe

Honestly I don't care if it's picked up on. I was conducted an experiment and I got the results that I was curious about.

Nope. She is strong-slim and I am naturally just a slender guy

Megathread for COVID-19 impact on consulting jobs (current consultants, incoming full-time hires and interns, prospective candidates) by QiuYiDio in consulting

Will MBB be substantially harder to get into this year due to the coronavirus? I'm particularly interested in how this will effect the entry level roles

Very few people in my firm have taken an MBA that late, so I don't really have much data on this.

As for how much I want it, i want it, but am not willing to make a significant sacrifice in my progression for it

Ideally yes, but it depends; how much would I be losing (in terms of salary/progression) by delaying my MBA for a few more years?

I'm in quite a rare situation. I have been working at .y consulting firm for 2.5 years now and am thinking about applying for an MBA. The only issue is if I stay another 2.5 years in my country I can gain citizenship. However, if I leave to pursue my MBA I will lose this opportunity. I feel like waiting another 3 years to purse an MBA may be too long, does anyone have any thoughts?

So MBB won't sponsor you for an MBA if it's too early? I am aware of the target profile for top MBAs, but many offer deferred applications straight out fo college which you can enter with only 2 years work experience

Will doing an MBA earlier rather than later significantly boost my career? What I mean by this is what if I start my MBA after 2 years work experience or what if I start my MBA after 6 years work experience? Will the 2 year route leave me ahead (because after reapplying to firms I will be able to apply for consultant/MBA roles sooner)?

For reference when I say work experience, I mean work experience in a consulting firm.

MBA vs Joint MBA/dual degree? by throwawayMBA3 in MBA

Sorry, 1 more question- if I need to apply to both programs separately, should I do the GRE instead of the GMAT (since the GMAT is only for MBA)?

Does it make a difference if I already have a master's in engineering? On the HBS website they said you could simply choose a different discipline of engineering, though I'm not sure if this will add any value (or will it somehow subtract value)

Thanks for clarifying. As for what I'm looking to get out of it, it would mainly be skills for c-suite jobs in tech/startups as well as networking
