Havard MBA has never accepted anyone who has never worked before, they do not state it because it is already expected that everyone will know. If you have a basis for that, please substantiate. Quote:2 1. Does interning provide me the same training opportunities as assuming a full-time appointment? This, i really do not know but the internships at big 4 are definitely well-sought after by many students in the local universities. In short you are not saying anything I admitted indeed i do not know anything about this, but then again, are you saying anything constructive? Quote3: Is it unethical to resign after 6 months, and will it carry ramifications to my employability in the future? I plan to work as a lawyer then hop to management consultancy. If you are honest to the company that you can commit for 6 months then they will not fault you in any way should you leave the company but chances are, they will not employ you. Again thats not saying anything. IF you can read, you should know what my answer implies is that it is ethical to resign after 6 months should you let them know in advance during the interview. AND by posting the above reply, are you contributing to this thread in anyway or to even clear the doubt of the thread starter? |

Harvard, along with Stanford, does indeed allow you, and there are real examples to substantiate so, to participate in an MBA programme immediately graduation, but this privilege is reserved for the most exceptional of applicants who have exemplified that they have acquired valuable business experience and displayed excellent civic consciousness during the course of their undergraduate studies. Regardless, it would be good if I can have more insights that would aid me in resolving my dilemma of internship vs full-time. |

while certain top universities like cambridge do require you to work 3 years before commencing your mba course, other universities like harvard did not state that as a pre-requistite in their admission criteria. To be considered for admission, an applicant must have successfully completed the following: A degree program at an accredited U.S. four-year undergraduate college/university or its equivalent (unless you are a college senior applying to our 2+2 Program). Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) or Graduate Record Examination (GRE) from a test taken January 1, 2008 or later. The GMAT or GRE is a prerequisite for admission; Internet-based Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL iBT) or International English Language Testing System (IELTS) score from a test taken January 1, 2011 or later, is required for international applicants who attended a non-English-speaking undergraduate university; and Submission of a complete online application for evaluation by one of the decision round deadlines. Thus, it is still possible for you to take on the MBA upon completing your law degree for consultancy and if that is the case, whether you are doing an internship or a short term full time position will not actually benefit you in terms of your long term goal. And, to answer your question 1. Does interning provide me the same training opportunities as assuming a full-time appointment? This, i really do not know but the internships at big 4 are definitely well-sought after by many students in the local universities. 2. Is it unethical to resign after 6 months, and will it carry ramifications to my employability in the future? I plan to work as a lawyer then hop to management consultancy. If you are honest to the company that you can commit for 6 months then they will not fault you in any way should you leave the company but chances are, they will not employ you. Hope this helps. |

I appreciate realistic grounded advice, and I would like to thank you for spending some time to highlight the unfeasibility of my plans. But i see no need to include what may deem to you as the realism of verbal warfare and blunt criticisms to a kid who is seeking advice from people who are more experienced. In return for your advice, let me give you another: it would serve you well if you don't speak in real life in the same way as you do in forums; but it's alright if you only articulate these thoughts in anonymity online. |

He took ACCA during NS isn't it? I don't know why everyone is so mean on this thread. Doing ACCA during NS is better than just bumming around isn't it? |
