So, will your dream job be sufficient enough to drop an MBA? What about 5-10 years later? You might not be able to progress to, say, a partner or whatever your next step is without an MBA right?
:) really? and just how much do you remember from the stuff you learned in udergrad? I don't think I even rememebr 10% of the things I learned in undergrad and it has been less than 2 years since I graduated
For me an MBA is just the next step to get me where I want to be at a few years from now. MBA is not relaly about education
it is about opportunities that it gives you, exchange of ideas, network .... and a bunch of other intangibles
Trust me, the balance sheet analysis that you will learn in your MBA will evaporate from your brain pretty quickly
... but if you have your dream job by then it won't even matter

Na-ah, wrong answer! MBA is a lifetime investment, this is not something you do to just land in a typical post-MBA job. I expect the knowledge I will obtain in the b-school to benefit me in decades.
