First, I know this doesn't fit the forum very well but I can't find a perfect place for it so I'm just going to post it here. I have the option to take an educational leave of absence from my job to pursue a full-time MBA and return to the same or a similar position. My close friends and family say I would be stupid to pass up this sure thing by quitting and finding something new after graduation. I personally am planning to switch careers from engineering to consulting so going back to the same job does not fit with my career goals at all. I just wanted to know how many of you are quitting your jobs completely and how many are going back to the same job or company.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
