lets talk about getting an MBA

[juiceddreadlocks]

What about a masters in healthcare admin?

Anyway, what really boils down to at the end of the day is your performance. I know a few hedge fund managers / advisors who do not have MBAs.

On the other hand, I know some who have triple graduate degrees from Yale. So whilst good schools do kind of open doors, a truly fantastic performer is more important.

I am starting my Bachelor of Science at one of the schools u mentioned above and I honestly think that a Master's of Economics in one of those schools is far more useful than an MBA (if u take business school undergrad).

where do u go now?

not true. i have a cousin that got hired by them straight out of college after his bachelors. they recruited him wayyyy before that (he interned there for the summer. paid him well, too). they recruit all the freakin 4.0 gpa, top 20 business school kids.

fuck the corporate ladder. make your bread, stack it, and make your money work for you.

an MBA will get you a job with a botique investment firm/bank....but the big dogs, yeah, they all go for the top end schools. such is the bullshit of the corporate world

you can learn all the mba shit yourself just by reading books for 2 years.

as is probably the case with most advanced degress....lol

edjewcation is overaided

I have one, but the degree was more of a byproduct of my desire to get some more work experience and some time to grow the fuck up.

it helps tho. it's one of those things that will matter at the right time.

I have BS from UCLA and thinking about getting my MBA in a year or so. I have experiance I just need to realize I need to do well on the GMAT etc

but I have heard that an MBA doesnt mean shit unless it is from the top of the top. seems everyone at the top of command has an MBA from a big hairy school.

As a result, the value of your MBA degree is directly related to the prestige of the university and business school which grants it. A recent study of the value of MBA programs concluded that “if you don’t get into a leading business school, the economic value of the degree is really quite limited.” [1] The study examined consultants at McKinsey & Company



Harvard Business School
Stanford Graduate School of Business
MIT Sloan School of Management
Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania
Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University



I could maybe try stanford...... only dream on that and hope...maybe USC i could try too

Goldman, Sachs & Co really only hires those from strong MBA programs. I would love to work overseas in the Asian market for Goldman Sachs

My little brother is currently at Kellogg. Is it tough to get in there? He's got a lot of natural intelligence but I dont know that his undergrad grades were all that hot (partied alot). Although he's been highly successful in his career since he left undergrad, does that have anything to do with it>
