Stacy,
Thank you for taking the time to answer everyones questions.
I have been debating with a co-worker who is interested in getting his MBA as well. We both are admin assistants at Morgan Stanley. Will being a secretary hurt our chances of getting into a top-tier school? Would it be better to wait to transfer into a position which is more of an actual position rather than solely clerical? We are recent college grads (2008), and although we are thankful to have a job, we both agree this isn't something we ever imagined doing. We both agree having Morgan Stanley's name behind us is a huge plus, but does the whole administrative role take away from the Morgan Stanley pedigree?
I have a 3.9 undergrad. Graduated Summa Cum Laude from the John F. Welch College of Business at Sacred Heart University. Double major in Business Economics and Business Administration with a concentration in Management. I did two summer internships at UBS and a full year of internship at Morgan Stanley. I plan on breaking 700. I am looking to attend a top-tier B-School such as Columbia, NYU or Stanford.
Just wondering your thought's on the matter and I am sure a few others may have simliar questions.
Thank You,
Nick
