alexbr4 Verified User. Likes Earned: 1762 In terms of “undecided”, are you considering whether it makes sense to pursue an MBA at Fuqua or remain at Deloitte? (0)

eliot Verified User. Likes Earned: 1964 Congrats on your acceptance to Fuqua. Fuqua is a great MBA program with a solid track record of MBB placement and it would likely be easier for you to transition to MBB from Fuqua than by seeking an MBB job directly from Deloitte. Now, I do recognize that you have a high opportunity cost of foregone salary for 20 months, but Fuqua would give you more career optionality over the next 2- 10 year time horizon. (1)
