Hi,
maybe i can find a alumni or even current student of the MiM in Mannheim.
As i am planning my future, i am deciding if i want to retake the gmat, or just keep at my local university for my master degree. I could focus on my freelancing, get a really good half time job and enjoy my life. I am worried if i will even have enough time to live my life at Mannheim? How many hours a week do you study there?
I'd take a lot of IT-Lectures, do you know anything about their difficulty?
In general, maybe some non Mannheim students can help me there as well: Is it that important to study at a top school to get a good job? I'll have a good degree with a few letters of recommendation, semester abroad, a finished internship (skipped half a year), a skipped semester in my bachelors, and student work experience. Of course is this not much compared to a alumni from a top university, but i also am not that interested in finance or similar high paying/high stress jobs, my main focus is IT-management.
I know the questions are a bit common, but i'd appreciate to hear some of your opinions !
Kind regards

Hi StressTest,
Your confusion is understandable - But if you streamline your goals a bit, you will have more clarity and will be in a better position to make a decision.
Firstly, about continuing at your local university or aiming for a more competitive university - That depends upon how strongly you want to move outside your comfort zone. There is no doubt that studying at a University with a better brand is always the better option - So if you are ready to step outside of your comfort zone, go for it. I am not sure what you mean by whether you will be able to live your life at Mannheim - The curiculum is intensive no doubt, but from what I hear from our clients who got into Mannheim and HHL -They have the best of both worlds - Along with the work hours, they are actively involved in a lot of co-curriculars and activities around the campus.
Coming to your next question - Is it that important to study at a top school to get a good job? Well, I would say that studying at a top school certainly opens up doors - This is because all the major companies will be recruiting from the Tier-1 Schools of their respective countries , which in Germany's case would be WHU- Mannheim-HHL.
Lastly, Mannheim MiM would be a good fit if you are looking at generalized management profiles - Even if you are not interested in Finance- There are other options like generalized management, operations, marketing, etc. If you are looking for primarily IT related profiles - Would suggest you to look into MIS as instead.
Maybe an evaluation will help you clarify your goals more - You can take one here : https://mim-essay.com/profile-evaluation?gcf
Let me know how that goes

Thank you so much for your reply!
You mentioned "MIS" as alternative to a IT-Focused MiM. Can you tell me what MIS means? I'm not used to the vocabulary.
Furthermore, i dont want to go 100% IT. I bring a lot of IT knowledge and want to combine that with management knowledge, to manage it-projects, or to consult in the it-area.
