Baashi Posted May 22, 2008 Watch the red ink figures! If you are in debt and haven't swiped the plate clean from undergrad grease plz hold ur horses and pay ur dues first. Otherwise go for it and ace it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LANDER Posted May 22, 2008 Good Advice Baashi, If you're already in the workforce and have an employer that is willing to invest that money in you, than that works out too. Originally posted by Li Ka-shing: Goodluck Lander. 7th June is getting near. What level are you taking mate? Level 1 here. Same here dude, I'll tell you it ain't easy getting ready while working full time. Last weekend it came down to study time or May 18th party, it was tough choice but I went with the 'barty'(boy was that a waste of time). On June 7th, if you need extra motivation make sure you look around that room and keep in mind that 60% or about 2 out of 3 will fail that exam worldwide. Pass rate for december was 39%. So no matter how well you do personally, beating out the competition is a must. But I'm sure you already know that . Good luck to you too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What is the average cost of an MBA or any professional studies for that matter over the 2-3 year period? 40K? 50K? Now,what about the return? Say, the average starting salary for an MBA holder is about 85-90K, that is almost 150K in two years? Add that to the likelihood of advancement which has the potential of rising in corporate America, in 10 years or so, one could actually return the initial investment,easily. Lander/La Kish, Good luck. Really, I am sure you two will be among the 39% of those who made it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
