I just wanted to thank you for your advice regarding the JD/MBA. Everything thing you said was true. I guess now my burning question is what type of work experience will help me get into Harvard. I hear so much that work experience is the key (of course behind GPA and LSAT/GMAT). The thing is that I would love to go through an analyst training program for 2 or 3 years before grad school, but my chances are slim. In your opinion, what would be a wise career choice upon graduation? Accounting, commercial banking, I am just not sure what is the best path to take. Would you reccomend getting a CPA, CFA, or CMA? I know what my long term goals are, but just don't know the best way to get there. Thanks again for your advice. |

All of these are important for business school, but law school is based almost exclusively on GPA and LSAT.
Also, don't be so fixated on Harvard. You will have great opportunities no matter what MBA you go to so long as it is one of the top 8 or so (especially the top 3)!
My best advice to you is to work for a 3-4 years and get the best experience possible. This will really help you more than anything in getting into a top MBA.
Good luck!!
