Usually when you search for jobs you don't include masters or phd degrees that you failed to obtain or did not complete. Is this also applicable to MBA admissions where you are also supposed to calculate the number of months worked?
For instance if you were given a leave of absence to study a master's degree, yet failed to obtain the degree. and then returned to where you were working previously, do you need to explicitly state this fact on the resume, or just leave it out and subtract a year from the months worked? In particular if the company gives you six months of work time for a year of study relevant to the company's main industry, then am I allowed to
1) leave it out of my resume
2) subtract six months from my time to employment till now
and not be, for example, denied admissions or the degree later on for admissions under false pretenses?
Thank you.
