Alright - I'm going to get my MBA, simple as that. I'm rather infuriated with the lack of response as far as getting a job, so I'm just going to skip that step. I'm sure my dad'll be thrilled, as he's been saying I should get it for awhile now. It's too bad his reasoning was it'd be "easy". That deterred me even more from wanting to get an MBA, because if I'm going be spending a crap-ton of money on school, the last thing I want is it to be easy. I damn well better be learning something significant.
At this point I'm just researching different programs, including U of M, State, Oakland, U of Detroit - Mercy, CMU, WSU and Northwood. SVSU was not suggested as it lacks the reputation necessary. I imagine that applying to U of M or State would be pointless, even if I do meet the requirements as my undergraduate work is mediocre and I don't have many great references, but we'll see. Another question - applying to schools out of state?
Things to do MBA-wise:
- Study for the GMAT
- Sign up to take the GMAT
- Determine which schools I can apply to (based on admission criteria, deadlines and funding)
Things to do otherwise:
- Take some photos downtown with the Holga
- Find/purchase small-ish chair to re-upholster
- Frog/fix/continue Sarah's sweater (I hate intarsia!)
- Locate a table so I can set up my sewing machine in the basement
