Thanks again, this is really helpful. I feel really sad to leave behind all the prestige, brand and glamour that comes with Yale and ivy-league. Even in US b-schools, I have observed this recent trend of MBB recruiting internationals directly for international offices. Also, since I'm not very inclined towards tech, would it limit my US job options to only consulting as an international if I go to Yale?

Please explain Q8.
"However, the ideas and institutions developed by New England Puritans had powerful effects on North American culture." -author's statement.

How is A right?


*HOWEVER* shows there's a contradiction of the author's view from Bailyn's line of thought.
So Bailyn says "However, the ideas and institutions developed by New England Puritans had powerful effects on North American
It means the Bailyn doesn't think that Puritan had such powerful effect on North America.
So the Author agrees that Bailyn underestimates the effect of Puritan, this is what the question is asking.
Option A says Bailyn underestimates the effect Puritan had on North American Culture...CORRECT!
Hope this helps?

Hello,

I currently hold an offer from HEC Paris, and am waiting to hear back from LSE. A primary differentiator for me in a choice between these two would be the recruiters who visit each school to recruit and employ international students. I hope to work in Europe once I graduate, and this information will help me greatly in making an informed choice.

Would appreciate some help with this! I can find some data on regular recruiters, but can't find any data on who the recruiters are that recruit internationally.


Hi, without any second thought go with HEC Paris, it is one of the best BSchool for MBA as well as MS. :thumbup:

Need 550 score only - 3 months

Hello GMAT club,

I am brand new to this GMAT thing and just created my account today to post and gain some insight from you guys. I have been out of school for a couple years and working professionally, however I am planning to attend business school in 2020 so I am preparing for the applications that are due by the end of September 2019. I have purchased the OG and started going through the diagnostic test in the beginning of the book, which was very discouraging. I received scores on the quant PS + DS which equated to below average using the diagnostic test scores. On the Verbal part of the diagnostic I am average in RC + CR and below average in SC. I read not to look too much into these diagnostic questions in the OG as they are usually pretty difficult. I was going through some of the explanations for the diagnostic questions and they seemed very convoluted to me and I thought I was wasting my time.

I am trying to achieve a score of 550 only, but if I do better than that that is obviously great. I am wondering what the best possible study plan for 3 months would be if my target score is only 550. I need to brush up in everything in Quant clearly, so I am wondering what the best material to use for this would be if my target score is only 550. I really don't see the need in studying questions at a high level and only really want to learn the foundational concepts of quant. I have always been pretty decent with math throughout schooling so I feel like it won't be that difficult to relearn some of the concepts and make them stick. I am also a native English speaker and feel that I don't need to concentrate too much on Verbal, just reading high level publications and learning some grammar concepts for the sentence correction. I looked into the Magoosh premium subscription, but not sure if I want to shell out the $250. Is the official guide sufficient enough for a 550 on the GMAT? I also have the Manhattan Quant book if that matters.

Please if you have any insight on what/how/how long to study for the 550 it would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

The double career switch: Rohan Vashdev Balwani, MBA 19

FROM Haas Admissions Blog: The double career switch: Rohan Vashdev Balwani, MBA 19
Image

Seven years into his hardware engineering career, Rohan Vashdev Balwani, MBA 19, sensed a shift in his interests and his industry.

As a design engineer, first at Nvidia and later at Oracle, he helped develop products that pushed the edge of technology yet found few buyers in the market. This raised the question: What makes a product successful?

He found the answer through discussions with product managers at both firms and further explored it by volunteering for projects on the product management side of development. This sparked an interest: How much more impact might he make working in product management?

Engineers decide how to build something. Its the product managers who figure out what we need to build to solve a customers problem, says Rohan, a student in the Berkeley Evening & Weekend MBA program. I really enjoyed being on the product management side.

Around the same time, Rohan noted an industry trend of consolidation among hardware companies and a boom among software firms.

I realized that soon there would be very few companies specializing in hardware whereas software was gaining more and more ground, he says. So not only did I want to switch to product management but also recognized I needed to move over to building software products.

But he was unable to make the switch right away.

Achieving his goal would take a two-pronged approachone to build his business savvy, the other his networkso Rohan applied to Berkeley Haas and simultaneously got involved with the larger product management community.

To his amazement, he reaped results within six months of entering the Berkeley Evening & Weekend MBA program.

Building Soft Skills
He credits the program with helping him hone his interpersonal soft skills through courses on negotiations, leadership communication, and power and politics. He got to practice those skills at his job at Oracle and through International Business Development, an experiential learning course where students serve as consultants solving real-world problems for clients.

I dont think I would have gotten these experiences anywhere else but Haas. Ive gained not only information but also experienced personal growth.

Leveraging His Education
Rohan used the skills he was learning in the EWMBA program with the knowledge acquired from involvement in the product management communityvolunteering with the Silicon Valley Product Management Association, Lean Product Meetup, and the annual Product Leader Summitto position himself for a double career switch. Soon, he could swap both role (engineering to product management) and industry (hardware to software).

So he began searching for opportunities within Oracle.

The timing was perfect, because Oracle had recently acquired cloud-based software provider Ravello Systems. Rohan connected with Ravello co-founder Navin Thadani, who was then serving as vice-president of product development at Oracle.

After multiple meetings with him, a job opened up and he was happy to have me on board as a product manager.

Now a senior product manager at Oracle, Rohan is part of a team that oversees the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, a platform that offers a suite of B2B software services.

Helping Others to Switch
Soon after, Rohan reached out to classmates and others interested in making a similar career shift. As VP-Careers for the EWMBA Association, he arranged One-to-Many sessions where students could learn about other careersincluding product managementfrom peers working in the field. He also shared his story at a fall 2017 Career Day event.

His hope is that he can inspire others to pursue their dreams and convey how a Berkeley MBA helped make his possible.

I wake up happy every day that I made the change to product management. I really enjoy having an impact on the product itself and helping solve customers problems, he says. One day I hope to expand from B2B to B2C products and the Haas course Growth Hacking is already helping me gain experience in that area.

Thinking about a career change? See how the Berkeley EWMBA program can help you make the transition.
