- Three Reasons to Ban Guest Speakers from the MBA Classroom
- Our Technology Management class ran over tonight -- again. Two-thirds of the way through, it's a definite trend; in fact, I think it's run over every time I've been in class. At least half the time, a guest speaker has contributed at least partially to the time issue. Tonight was...

- Don't make this rookie MBA student mistake
- Tonight, we had our first quiz in Financial Accounting. Sounds easy enough, doesn't it? I'm pretty sure I bombed it -- embarrassingly so. I could blame it on the fact that I've never had accounting (never mind the fact that many people who know...

- Why MBAs Need More Than Business
- While perusing BNET, I came across a blog post by Jessica Stillman that caught my eye: "Should Managers Study the Liberal Arts?" (Sure, it's a couple of months old, but it posted right before the holidays, so I bet I'm not the only one who may have missed it.) ...

- How Much is Getting in the Right Class Worth to You?
- BNET's Michael Mattis recently passed on an article to me about colleges that take getting into the right class to a whole new level ("Class Warfare: When Getting In Is the Hardest Part"). It seems some schools have enacted programs such as lotteries to help students get into highly popular...

- Should I Have Gone to Law School?
- In our Leadership class this session, we've had local CEOs come to speak to us about what it takes to be a leader. (If you're thinking it sounds like Career Day at your local junior high, you wouldn't be that far off course.) So far, we've had three guest speakers...

- Is Writing Well the Best Reward?
- Our classes for the third session began last week. Over the next six weeks, I have a 15-page paper, essay exam, weekly econ chapter assessments, a couple essays, and a memo to look forward to. Last session, we had two papers, two essay exams, and those weekly econ assignments. Oh,...

- Three Things I Wish I'd Known Before Starting Grad School
- It's that time of year when you can't escape wrap-ups. Magazines, Web sites, and blogs are filled with "best of" lists, deconstructing the year in all its minutiae. Me, I'm a total sucker for a list, any list. There's just nothing like having information distilled down to...

- Finding the Value in Wasted Time
- Tonight, I sat in class and listened to my fellow classmates summarize points from a textbook. Let me repeat that. Tonight, I, a 31-year-old graduate student, sat in class and listened to other grad students basically read from a college textbook. (Oh, I also...

- Learning Overtime
- I am not a fan of meetings. This is not a secret; people who work with me are all too familiar with my distaste. It's not that I think all meetings are pointless. But enough of my time -- and my coworkers' time -- has been wasted over the years...

- Why I'll Take my Chances and Stay in School
- When BNET's Nicole Solis first asked me to write a rebuttal for BNET's latest feature package "What's That MBA Really Worth?" my first thought was, "Well, I don't know. I just started an MBA program! What do I know about what it's worth in the real world?" (OK, so maybe...

- Get with the MBA Program
- So far, we've spent a lot of time talking about deciding whether to go back to school for your MBA and how to get in. But what happens once you get there? All MBA programs are different: Some are online, some are full-time, some are nights, and...

- Getting In: Stacking the Deck in Your Favor
- We've been talking about surviving the admissions process and getting into an MBA program. The program I'm in had seven parts to its admissions process, which I've divided into two categories: what you can control and what you can't. We've already covered the action items you can't...

- Choosing the Right School
- Now that you've weighed the consequences, done the math, and decided going back to school makes sense, you need to figure out where you're going to go. Most of us have dreamed of going to Harvard or Princeton, but let's be honest: That's usually just not feasible. Even if you...

- Find the Money to Fund Your MBA
- Once you've decided that your job and your life can survive your return to school, you need to answer this question: Can I/we afford it? Graduate degrees don't come cheap. According to Forbes.com, the average cost of earning an MBA is $100,000. Now, the university I'll be attending is considerably...

- What I Did on My Summer Vacation
- For the first time in 10 years, summer has had a meaning again. Since I graduated college and joined the "real world," my seasons have blended together, no longer dictated by class schedules and summer jobs. In fact, once anticipated and longed for, summer has become my least favorite season --...

- College 2.0: Is It Time to Go Back for Your MBA?
- Late last summer, I started flirting with the idea of going back to school. I'd been out of college for about eight years and never really considered going back. Then one day, my husband came home with the news that his employer would pay for his higher education as long...
