probably. probably the only way to get that 80k to 120k. but if youre sucking globalist cock bc you need the cash you might as well commit suicide. the only real reason to go to bschool is to live off your parents.

I mostly just want to hang out on a college campus for 2 yrs while not being 100% unproductive.

I'd prob take out loans for most of the tuition--no parental help.

Right now, I'm @ $80K + bonus. Best case would probably be another promotion in 1.5-2yrs that would raise that to $90K + a slightly larger bonus.

it doesn't matter too much. I wasted a bunch of time looking at schools in this range when I considering a free MBA.

You...

1. have a better job than 90% of their entering classes,

2. have a higher GMAT than 90% of the class,

3. have a more prestigious UG th 95% of the class

4. aren't an indian FOB IT bro (who make up the majority of 730+ GMATs at these schools)

that shit can have some serious adverse effects on your social life though.

want to go away for the long weekend? can't, you've got to teach a class friday afternoon. want to go hang out with friends for a random happy hour? can't, have to run office hours and do all of the professor's work for him.

my gf taught ec10 and absolutely hated it.
