Re: ex-military students [#permalink]
I'm currently in consulting right now, and I'm thinking about leaving the corporate world to join the armed services. Ideally, I'd like to be an intelligence officer with the Marine Corps, but I've only been doing light research on it. Do you think it's worth getting in now with the intention of leaving to go to b-school in the future?

To the original poster, what did you study in undergrad? What courses did you take then? Typically schools will assess your skills and require (or not) that you do some pre-courses based (mostly) on your undergrad studies rather than your work experience.

Consulting firms - particularly McK - like you military folks too.

Duke loves its military guys. If you wanted me to connect you with someone, I'd be happy to. I've got marines, army, navy, airforce...I've got 'em all.

There are also quite some good fellowship opportunities for ex-military MBAs out there, I believe.
