    Any guys here have their MBA???

    looking into it, seems expensive (Northwestern running 100k for an MBA)
    big financial as well as mental commitment

    guys who have MBA, is it worth it???

    Not worth it to spend 100K on a piece of paper.

    If you have any skill or smarts, you don't need a piece of paper to make a decent living.

    If you're going for an MBA go for the best. That would be The Wharton School.

    Focus on getting a job and if you still think the MBA is a good idea once you are working get it part time. Also, try to work for place that will contribute to the cost of further education (lots of finance firms will do this). I got my JD after college and regret 1) not working right out of college, and 2) not working while earning the JD.

    Just finished mine. I agree that it's probably better to do it part-time while working (even though I know that makes for a pretty shitty 2-3 years). If you do choose full-time look for somewhere where you can do a graduate assistantship. They gave me a huge break in tuition cost and paid me way too much for the amount of work that actually needed to be done for doing a GA.

    Depending where you're at in your career work experience could be more valuable than going back to school, but getting the MBA worked out pretty well for me, and the number of people who had jobs locked up when graduating was pretty high in my class

    I've thought about it but it's a big committment. It's so expensive going to school these days. I'm having trouble finding work with a BA...don't know if an MBA would improve my situation.
