Hi Prateek29,

Unfortunately the answer of whether the investment is worth the cost depends on the individual. I recommend you identify what your goals are for the program, and then to speak to current students and alumni to see if a particular school can help you along those goals. Specifically, if there is a company you are interested in working for post-graduation, speak to the career centers to see if that company recruits at the school.

Cheers,

Conrad and the Stacy Blackman Team

Hey Stacy

I'm making an application to Thunderbird School of Global Management. What are your thoughts on this particular school.

Prateek29,

The program has a strong reputation for International Business. Have you considered taking the GMAT test again? The average GMAT score for the program is ~610.


Best,
