2023.06.06 02:27 Skeetabird Tax LLM Admissions/Career Question
So some background on myself. Currently a rising 3L in top 25% of my class at while not a top law school it is a flagship school in my home state of Louisiana . Had a 3.2 in Tax 1 and a 3.5 in tax 2. I have an interest in doing transactional work. I worked at a tax law firm during my 2L year and enjoyed it for the most part. Currently clerking at two firms over the summer that aren’t tax related but offer over 6 figures or close to 6 figures but no firm offer from this yet
First question for current/ recent grads: What are the odds of getting into a tax LLM program like GT, NW, NYU, or UF? What are scholarship options like? Do the programs do a good job helping you find a careejob?
Second question for graduates: What were the career options like? Did you find the cost worth it in terms of compensation?
Thanks in advance

I’m a rural NE student who goes to a really small charter school, looking to a future in medicine. I’ll include some basic stats and extracurriculars. My biggest worry is that there is just not enough to my profile, even though I’ve pretty much maxed out everything my school has to offer. I know schools generally look at what you’ve done in the context of what is available to you, but I’m still worried…
GPA: 4.27 UW (we use 4.0 scale but my grade system is different and doesn’t calculate weighted)
SAT: (taking in August)
Notable Classes:
-“Advanced” Spanish (similar to AP level, my school doesn’t offer AP courses except through dual-enrollment which I’ll get to later, junior and senior year)
-Applied Calc. at local community college (via dual-enrollment, in junior year)
-Infectious Diseases, Pandemics, and Social Justice (via Harvard Summer School, between junior and senior year)
-AP Bio, AP Calc. AB, AP US Gov. (all via dual enrollment, in senior year)
The dual enrollment situation at my high school: At my school, we can replace one class during our junior year with either a VHS (virtual high school) class or a class at a local community college. VHS offers AP classes, which are the only way to take APs at my school. During senior year, we can replace up to three classes via the same process. So although I’ve only taken one college class (aside from Harvard Summer School) and 3 APs, this was the max that I could do within the context of what my school offers.
Extracurriculars:
-Dartmouth bound participant
-Co-captain of varsity cross country team sophomore and junior year, captain senior year
-Co-captain of intramural cross country team junior year, captain senior year
-Social media manager of varsity cross country team Instagram, junior and senior year
-Sprit captain of varsity ultimate frisbee team junior year, captain senior year
-Social media manager of varsity ultimate frisbee team, senior year
-Hired my head of school, as well as 11th & 12th grade science teacher (working with hiring committee & board of trustees)
-Student representative on board of trustees, senior year (first time my school has done this)
-Student council all of high school
-Contributor to school newspaper all of high school
-Member of student-run racial and social justice group since it’s inception in my freshman year, helped fundraiser over 1K for voting access nonprofit in 2020, helped paint murals on campus honoring Black excellence at my school
-Received “Peacemaker” award from local/county organization, given certificate, cash prize, and state gov. citations from both senate and house of reps. in recognition of award, featured in local newspaper for it
-Week-long internship at local hospital in surgery junior year
-Student ambassador at local hospital between junior and senior year, 35+ volunteer hours from this alone
-Founding member of local, student run social justice group
-Founding member of peer-tutoring program at my school
Other info:
-High honor roll all of high school, high honors in every class, all semesters
-“HOWLs of Fame” (Habits of Work and Learning) award given by school, every semester of high school
Schools I’m applying to:
-All eight ivies (plus Brown PLME, this is my dream school/program)
-Four CA schools (UCLA, UC Berkeley, USC, Stanford)
-Northeastern
-Northwestern
-UChicago
-Johns Hopkins
-BU
-NYU
-Carnegie
-Duke
-Vanderbilt
-GWU BS/MD program, Yeshiva/Einstein BS/MD program
I KNOW these are all reallyyyyyy difficult schools to get into (save Yeshiva and GWU, which are 50%-60%), but what are your thoughts on this list? Any higher chances than others? Any other school recommendations, or predictions?
One last thing to note: my BS/MD program essays focus on my experiences with surgery as a child, mainly palate repair (Pierre Robin’s Sequence), as well as a traumatic episode of appendicitis and a burst appendix in my sophomore year in which I nearly died, and how these experiences made me want to pursue a career in medicine. Also noting that I received high honors in all of my classes that semester, and that is also when I received my “Peacemaker” social justice award, after and despite missing over a month of school, going through a tough breakup, and having a literal s ho fire that forced us to relocate to the aforementioned community college for the remainder of the school year.
Thanks for reading and sharing thoughts!

New Eye Surgery Holds Promise for Correcting Nearsightedness
The SMILE eye procedure is similar to LASIK in being less invasive, says one doctor.

By Parminder Deo and Jacqueline Paulis, M.D.
Cleveland resident Tina Noel struggled with glasses and contacts for most of her life. The 44-year-old has been living a blurry and cloudy life as her aging eyes have progressively become drier due to an autoimmune condition.
“I’m very limited to what I can wear anymore,” says Noel. “I can't wear my contacts anymore because my eyes are just progressively getting drier. I feel my eyes get so tired, I can be driving and my eyes just want to shut when I'm wearing my glasses.”

Lasik Alternative Approved by the FDA
The Food and Drug Administration in September approved a new laser eye procedure known as Small Incision Lenticule Extraction, or SMILE. Noel's doctor recommended giving it a try.
The procedure employs a laser, similar to the one used in LASIK, to remove a small piece of the cornea to reshape the eye. Many people with corneal changes that excluded them from LASIK could now be eligible for this new surgical option.
Noel's ophthalmologist, Dr. Ronald Krueger of the Cleveland Clinic, said the SMILE procedure is all about being minimally invasive.
“I often say that SMILE is like a laparoscopic LASIK because it’s making a smaller incision,” Krueger told NBC News.
The new laser procedure is designed to treat nearsightedness in patients aged 22 and older. The price tag is roughly $5,000 and is not covered by insurance.
Dr. Ilyse Haberman, assistant professor in the Department of Ophthalmology at NYU Langone Medical Center, says that, outside of the U.S., SMILE can correct astigmatism and is being further developed to fix farsightedness. But for patients in the U.S., only very specific candidates can get the SMILE procedur

2023.06.03 21:50 Applicant2026 USC vs NYU
This past week, my transfer cycle finally came to a close, and I'm pretty happy with the results. Despite my pretty horrendous HS GPA (3.3UW), I managed to get into WashU, NYU, and USC.
I am having an incredibly difficult time choosing between NYU and USC (I like WashU a lot, and it definitely has its perks, but idk how I'd feel about spending the next three years of my life in St. Louis). I'm hoping that with the advice of this sub (and a few other college subs on Reddit) I can finally put down my deposit by the end of the week and start planning for my new college life. Listed below are my feelings regarding both colleges. From this stream of consciousness, please lmk which college you think would be a better fit for me, and which college you would choose were you in my position. Thanks in advance for your help.
NYU
I really, really like New York City. If you'd asked me three years ago what my top school was, I would tell you NYU. I love the culture and the vibe of the city and I particularly love Greenwich Village. I appreciate how many opportunities there are in New York, both in terms of my career and personal life, and I feel like I'd never really get bored in the city. I also feel like socially, I'd probably have an easier time adjusting to NYU and its open campus as I'm transferring in from a similar city school. All this said, there are a few things that I'm a little hesitant about.
Really didn't think too much about USC until early this January. It quickly became my second-choice school after NYU as I began to research the programs and orgs on campus. I've never been to LA and I'd be so down to try something new even if I don't think it could match New York in terms of atmosphere. As a huge movie guy, I feel like I'd get a kick out of living in LA and immersing myself in the culture there. I think USC has more interesting programs in terms of what I want to do and it allows me to be more flexible with my major. I've also heard that USC has a stronger alumni network compared to NYU, and the smaller class sizes will allow me to have a more personalized connection with my professors. Naturally though, there are a few apprehensions that are stopping me from committing:

I also feel like socially, I'd probably have an easier time adjusting to NYU and its open campus as I'm transferring in from a similar city school. All this said, there are a few things that I'm a little hesitant about.
- I'm in CAS Econ and I feel like it'll be overshadowed by Stern when it comes to finding internships at IB's and consulting firms. Additionally, I'm nervous that I wont be offered the same resources and tools as Stern students and I'll be at a competitive disadvantage when it comes to networking.
- I plan to go into big law and I feel like I'm going to be living in New York at one point or another in my career. I really don't want to spend too much of my life in one city, and I want to explore whenever possible. If I stick with NYU now, I fear that I'll stay in New York for law school and remain there for my career.
- CAS' economics program is pretty basic. I'm interested in Impact finance and consulting but unfortunately those areas of study are reserved for Stern students.
- No school spirit/ community. Though I enjoyed my time at my previous city school, I often felt isolated and lonely due to the lack of a proper community on campus. Sure there were clubs I could join to meet new people but I felt like I couldn't really connect with the other people there. I'm worried that I'll feel the same way at NYU. Also got mad seasonal depression at my previous school during winter.
Really didn't think too much about USC until early this January. It quickly became my second-choice school after NYU as I began to research the programs and orgs on campus.

I've also heard that USC has a stronger alumni network compared to NYU, and the smaller class sizes will allow me to have a more personalized connection with my professors. Naturally though, there are a few apprehensions that are stopping me from committing:
- Prevalence of Greek life on campus. I'd be down to rush but idk how much I'd like it. Greek life at my previous school was pretty ass so it's left a bad impression about frats in my mind. Idk how good or bad the frats at USC are, and I don't want to feel like I'm missing out if I decide not to pledge.
- NYC > LA. LA is not walkable at all, and idk how good the public transportation systems are. Also feel like maybe New York has more to do than LA but I could be wrong about that. NYU is also in a really nice part of Manhattan whereas USC (from what I've heard) is in a really shitty part of LA.
- NYU is more prestigious internationally.
- Not huge into football. Not sure how prevalent it is on campus, but I don't want to feel like I'm missing out if I'm not super invested in it.

I love the culture and the vibe of the city and I particularly love Greenwich Village. I appreciate how many opportunities there are in New York, both in terms of my career and personal life, and I feel like I'd never really get bored in the city. I also feel like socially, I'd probably have an easier time adjusting to NYU and its open campus as I'm transferring in from a similar city school. All this said, there are a few things that I'm a little hesitant about.
Really didn't think too much about USC until early this January. It quickly became my second-choice school after NYU as I began to research the programs and orgs on campus. I've never been to LA and I'd be so down to try something new even if I don't think it could match New York in terms of atmosphere. As a huge movie guy, I feel like I'd get a kick out of living in LA and immersing myself in the culture there. I think USC has more interesting programs in terms of what I want to do and it allows me to be more flexible with my major. I've also heard that USC has a stronger alumni network compared to NYU, and the smaller class sizes will allow me to have a more personalized connection with my professors. Naturally though, there are a few apprehensions that are stopping me from committing:

I am having an incredibly difficult time choosing between NYU and USC (I like WashU a lot, and it definitely has its perks, but idk how I'd feel about spending the next three years of my life in St. Louis). I'm hoping that with the advice of this sub (and a few other college subs on Reddit) I can finally put down my deposit by the end of the week and start planning for my new college life. Listed below are my feelings regarding both colleges. From this stream of consciousness, please lmk which college you think would be a better fit for me, and which college you would choose were you in my position. Thanks in advance for your help.
NYU

I also feel like socially, I'd probably have an easier time adjusting to NYU and its open campus as I'm transferring in from a similar city school. All this said, there are a few things that I'm a little hesitant about.
- I'm in CAS Econ and I feel like it'll be overshadowed by Stern when it comes to finding internships at IB's and consulting firms. Additionally, I'm nervous that I wont be offered the same resources and tools as Stern students and I'll be at a competitive disadvantage when it comes to networking.
- I plan to go into big law and I feel like I'm going to be living in New York at one point or another in my career. I really don't want to spend too much of my life in one city, and I want to explore whenever possible. If I stick with NYU now, I fear that I'll stay in New York for law school and remain there for my career.
- CAS' economics program is pretty basic. I'm interested in Impact finance and consulting but unfortunately those areas of study are reserved for Stern students.
- No school spirit/ community. Though I enjoyed my time at my previous city school, I often felt isolated and lonely due to the lack of a proper community on campus. Sure there were clubs I could join to meet new people but I felt like I couldn't really connect with the other people there. I'm worried that I'll feel the same way at NYU. Also got mad seasonal depression at my previous school during winter.

Naturally though, there are a few apprehensions that are stopping me from committing:
- Prevalence of Greek life on campus. I'd be down to rush but idk how much I'd like it. Greek life at my previous school was pretty ass so it's left a bad impression about frats in my mind. Idk how good or bad the frats at USC are, and I don't want to feel like I'm missing out if I decide not to pledge.
- NYC > LA. LA is not walkable at all, and idk how good the public transportation systems are. Also feel like maybe New York has more to do than LA but I could be wrong about that. NYU is also in a really nice part of Manhattan whereas USC (from what I've heard) is in a really shitty part of LA.
- NYU is more prestigious internationally.
- Not huge into football. Not sure how prevalent it is on campus, but I don't want to feel like I'm missing out if I'm not super invested in it.

2023.06.03 18:54 Pomme-M NYU Langone Health researchers publish study revealing discovery of what drives Psoriasis severity, offering clues to how it spreads across body
“Led by researchers at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, the study mapped hidden features of inflammation and how they compared in cases of increasing severity of psoriatic disease. The team's findings may help explain how small areas of skin inflammation can have wide-ranging effects in other parts of the body. Up to one-fifth of those with the skin disease, the researchers note, go on to develop inflammation in the joints, or psoriatic arthritis. The study results, they say, may also offer clues as to why psoriasis can trigger this and other conditions, such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and inflammatory bowel disease.
Publishing in the journal Science Immunology online June 2, the new analyses revealed that the location of clusters of cells called fibroblasts, key regulators of inflammation, along with macrophages, a type of white blood cell, varied and were more common in upper layers of the skin in more severe cases of psoriasis.
Further, the research team found that in skin samples from patients with moderate-to-severe psoriatic disease, gene activity increased in more than three dozen molecular pathways tied to metabolism and control of lipid levels, factors known to go awry in diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. This increased gene activity even occurred in clear skin far away from any lesions.
"Our initial goal was to find measurable molecular signals that could tell us who is more likely to develop severe psoriasis, as well as who is at higher risk of developing related disorders that often accompany psoriasis, such as arthritis and cardiovascular disease," said study co-senior investigator Jose Scher, MD.
"Having found signals with potential systemic consequences, we are now working to understand how skin inflammation can lead to widespread disease affecting other organs," said Scher, the Steere Abramson Associate Professor of Medicine in the Department of Medicine at NYU Langone Health, where he also serves as director of its Psoriatic Arthritis Center, and the Judith and Stewart Colton Center for Autoimmunity.
"Our study serves as a valuable resource for the scientific community, offering the most comprehensive archive of cellular and molecular features involved in both diseased and healthy skin," added study co-senior investigator Shruti Naik, PhD. Naik is an assistant professor in the departments of Pathology, Medicine, and the Ronald O. Perelman Department of Dermatology at NYU Langone.
More than 8 million Americans, and 125 million people worldwide, are estimated to have psoriatic disease. The condition affects men and women equally.
Scher notes that the new study was designed to go beyond current diagnostic tools that focus heavily on visible signs of skin lesions instead of looking at their invisible systemic and molecular effects. While many available therapies, including steroids and immunosuppressive drugs, reduce inflammation and symptoms, they do not address the underlying causes of the disease.
The new study relied on spatial transcriptomics, a technique that carefully charts the molecular and cellular interactions occurring in a specific tissue. Researchers analyzed intact skin samples from 11 men and women with mild to severe cases of psoriatic disease, plus three healthy adults without psoriasis. Spatial transcriptomics, they say, is more powerful than other commonly used techniques that track single cells because it creates a broad image-based map of where cells are located in tissues and what other cells with which they are communicating.
Naik says the team next plans to use their latest analysis to identify the biological mechanisms involved in skin inflammation in one area and how it affects skin or other organs in another part of the body. Further research is also planned in larger groups of patients and in lesioned and nonlesioned skin from the same patients to determine how disease clears on its own in some and why patients respond differently to the same anti-inflammatory medications.”
For the benefit of researchers worldwide, study co-lead investigator and bioinformatician Ikjot Sidhu has archived its spatial transcriptomics analysis online at https://zenodo.org/record/7813973 and https://zenodo/org/record/7562864 .

2023.06.03 09:02 triadthreelon rethinking Death: The panel Discussion
Last month the documentary "Rethinking Death" with Dr. Sam Parnia premiered via a ZOOM presentation. The documentary was fallowed by a panel discussion of researchers who, in some cases, have experienced an NDE. While I've yet to see any traces of the documentary online (for those of us who couldn't see it), Parnia Lab at NYU Langone Health has posted the panel discussion on their YouTube channel. Be forewarned, the audio is disastrous. So bad that even close captioning has an exceptionally difficult time discerning what's being said.

2023.06.02 21:12 putsRnotDaWae Aswath Damodaran says many trading today are on "an extraordinarily dangerous pathway".
ChatGPT was prompted to create a question that would “annoy” legendary valuation professor at NYU, Damodaran. ChatGPT asked: "Can you give me a hot stock tip that will make me rich quickly, without any research or understanding of the company’s fundamentals?"
Damodaran – a man whose life and career are built on a calculated understanding of investing fundamentals – was amused, but admitted he hears similar questions frequently. He responded to such investors:
They miss the essence of investing. You don’t invest to get rich. You invest to preserve and grow wealth. I think the minute you think of investing as a pathway to getting rich, you set yourself up for all kinds of mistakes. You overreach. You overbet. Because that’s the way you get rich. You gamble.
I think we need to redefine investing. Investing is about preserving and growing wealth, which means if you’re a doctor, go back and do your job. Earn your income. That’s going to be at the heart of your investing. If you’re spending most of your time as a doctor looking through the stock pages trying to pick stocks, your wealth is not growing. Your investing can be great, but it does not pay off.
So I think that it’s much more common than we accept. They’re traders. They’re not investors. They want to trade their way to riches.
And they look at success stories. There’s a selection bias. Now you have YouTube videos of people who got rich in 5 years by trading. And you use those as role models. It’s an extraordinarily dangerous pathway you’re on because history suggests sooner or later you’re going to leave that casino with nothing in your pocket.

2023.06.02 20:14 magicpotion9 Cycle Recap - Attending HLS!
Sharing my (late!) cycle recap because I learned so much from this subreddit throughout the admissions process (especially as the first person in my family to attend law school in the U.S.), and I appreciated the relatability / support / memes throughout the uncertainty of the last year!
Stats: 3.7high GPA, 17mid LSAT, nURM, nKJD from a T10 undergrad with 2 years of WE, applied between mid-October and mid-November
Accepted - Harvard (attending), UChicago, Penn, NYU, Berkeley, Columbia, Cornell, Northwestern, Duke, Georgetown
Waitlisted - Michigan, UVA
Rejected - Yale, Stanford
I am beyond thrilled at how my cycle turned out! If there are any key takeaways from this process that I would tell my past self, it would be the following:
(1) Don't count yourself out from your dream schools as a "splitter" - I came into the process assuming my stats weren't "high enough" for HLS / UChicago but clearly could not have been more wrong
(2) A cohesive story / powerful personal statement can go really, really far. While my legal interests are somewhat niche, I didn't have anything particularly unusual (i.e., Rhodes, Fulbright) for "softs" but I did have a set of connecting experiences relating to my specific legal interest. These experiences helped me effectively answer "Why law?", "Why me?", and "Why now?" throughout my application materials. I cannot understate how important it was to take the time to reflect on what I had done and how it connects to who I am and my career goals vs. writing what I thought law schools wanted to hear or expecting my scores to buoy my application.
(3) You don't need the most amazing connections with your recommenders in order to receive solid rec letters, especially if they are your past professors. It is part of their job responsibilities to write rec letters, they do it all the time, and they genuinely want to see their students succeed. Reach out earlier in the summer rather than in the fall (like I did, oops) and provide them with materials that will make their letter-writing easier (e.g., sample personal statement, resume - imagine what you would want if you were tasked with writing a letter for someone else). Also, don't be afraid to follow up - all of my recommenders needed several reminders and appreciated when I reached out.
(4) This sub stresses too much sometimes the importance of submitting your applications earlier rather than later, but submitting in October / November is not at all "late" and will not "count you out" if that is what you need. It is better to have materials you feel good about than rushing to submit your applications as soon as the portals open in August / September.
Happy to answer any questions about my cycle / law school application process! Good luck to everyone entering the next cycle.

2023.06.02 18:53 EquivalentTrick3402 NYU Langone
Are they currently hiring? I've applied to them a few times and it seems that it takes a while to get an offer from them.
submitted by EquivalentTrick3402 to longisland [link] [comments]
2023.06.02 18:20 Troll-e-poll-e-o-lee Fall 2024 hopeful. Should I even apply? 31M First Gen URM w/unusual path. 670 GMAT. Be honest w/my chances.
Brief-ish background (more detail on some of the career description below).Grew up in the southwest. Not very good options as far as schools and career paths post college (it’s all operations and warehouses). Could have probably gotten into better undergrads but as a first-gen student (parents not from US), I didn’t really understand the importance of college choice for career path nor what career paths were out there.
Post graduation I worked at an insurance firm since it was the first role I was offered. Didn’t really like it but stayed about a year.
Worked at an investment management firm as a broker. Stayed for 21 months. The role was a call center environment and was not a good fit for what I was looking for. Struggled to get a promotion. Was ultimately fired
Took a job not long after doing the same thing at another broker. Was there for about 10 months. Was also fired over a weird reason elaborated further below but the broker sold their practice to a larger broker-dealer which I think factored in the decision.
After this I was feeling pretty down and lacking confidence in finding a career in business. I decided to try my hand at Computer Science and studied math and computer science at a local community college. Took a night shift job to cover cost of living after a semester. COVID hit and I decided it was best to not take hard math and computer science classes in an online environment.
After much deliberation, I explored and decided to attend a Masters in Finance program as a mini-MBA. I found a program that would suit me well and still had in-person options. Graduated in a year.
Accepted a job offer at a regional bank (in the S&P 500) working in Corporate Finance; specifically Corporate Profitability Analytics. The role is more data related and has me using SQL, Power BI, and other data related software/programs in addition to Excel. Currently 1.5 years in. Have been doing well and hoping to be able to gain a promotion soon although the company is sort of cheap when it comes to this sort of thing. While I don’t mind my current work, it is niche and not something I find particularly interesting outside of the skillset I’ve been able to gain.
If I weren’t considering applying to an MBA I’d probably start searching for other opportunities, however, I also realize that with my pre-MSF experience, the job hopping doesn’t look good and there will be more benefit to sticking with the company for almost 3 years at the start of the program and having a promotion under my belt.
MBA Info
· Why I want an MBA:
· Short-term I’m hoping to pivot into management/strategy consulting for my longer-term goal of being able to be a leader in my community. I would want to pivot into starting my own non-profit firm where I help members of low-income communities and URM owned businesses grow with the knowledge I gain from my consulting experience. I also think consulting would help with my eclectic nature and help with preventing the need to job hop given constantly being in new environments (probs wont mention this in an application though)
· Why I want one now:
· My current role is pretty niche in the banking industry. I’m afraid of being pigeonholed and the skillset I’m gaining, while desirable, isn’t necessarily one I see that aligns with my long-term goals.
· Target schools:
· Planning to apply through Consortium. Columbia (reach), Tuck, Yale, NYU, UVA, Rochester (safety school). Also open to applying outside of Consortium or changing the schools I apply to if better fit is recommended.
Background
· Work experience (starting from most recent)
· Nov 2021-Present; Corporate Financial Analyst at regional bank in S&P 500*.*
· I work in Corporate Profitability Analytics. While my title is a Financial Analyst, skillset wise, I would say my role is closer to a data analyst. I utilize SQL, Power BI, Excel, and other software to help develop, design and refine models to allow the bank to conduct data driven research in regards to the profitability of the bank. I develop and maintain reports and dashboards to disseminate information to executives and other relevant stakeholders and field questions and concerns related to the information.
· Oct 2020 – Aug 2020; Masters in Finance student at a state school
· This served as a mini-MBA for me. In my previous roles prior to this program, I was a bad fit as the roles were far too customer service oriented and led to me being fired from 2 of the roles and me quitting before I could be fired from another.
· December 2019 – July 2020 Bi-Lingual Fraud Representative at a large Credit Card Company (Capital One/DiscoveAmex type)
· This was a role I took on while I was considering a career switch into Computer Science/Financial Engineering. The role was a night shift and allowed me to work while taking classes.
· Left the role on my own terms as I wanted time to prepare for my Masters in Finance program
· Aug 2019 – March 2019; Math/Comp Sci student at community college
· Attended a local community college where I was majoring in Math/Computer Science as I was considering a career switch during a crisis of confidence. Took math, programming and engineering classes while attending. COVID struck during second semester and decided that taking a STEM heavy course load online was not optimal for me.Around this time, I decided to look into MBA’s and Masters in Finance programs. One MBA program (Rochester) really wanted me to apply there, but overall, I felt the MSF suited me better for my experience and where I was at in life. It would allow me to keep the MBA in the back pocket for any other potential switches.
· Oct 2018 – Jul 2019; Licensed Investment Professional at a Broker-Dealer
· Worked as a Series 7 and Series 63 licensed contractor. The company is large and serves a specified client base but did not have a large broker-dealer segment. Took a hands-on approach in all aspects of wealth and asset management: consulting and educating investors in mutual fund options and other products to help meet financial goals.
· Consistently led entire department in relationship management and engagement metrics: survey responses, survey scores, and new business development through sales referrals to advisory consultants in a fast-paced environment
· Consistently led entire department in operations and efficiency metrics while exceeding accuracy requirements and adhering to legal compliance through attention to detail
· Ended up being fired after a client complained to a friend of his in the Board of Directors that I wouldn’t help them with something that was not possible. The company ended up being bought out by a larger broker-dealer during that same month and they had been letting contractors expire w/out being renewed. I am under the impression they were downsizing regardless. I understand this section is speculative and would most likely omit it from any actual application.
·
· Nov 2016 – Aug 2018; Licensed Investment Professional at a top Broker-Dealer (PIMCO/Vanguard/Schwab type)
· Similar functional duties as other broker-dealer. In addition to those duties, demonstrated leadership and ability to work collaboratively through training and development of new hires, presentation of materials and investment methodology for new hires in multiple meetings, coaching, and mentorship of peers
· Voluntarily cross-trained and developed skills from higher level departments in order to liaison with those departments and assist in their service levels and learn new skills
· Consistently led the department in efficiency metrics such as calls taken and average handle time while maintaining high accuracy
· Ended up being placed on a performance improvement plan without warning and subsequently fired by my manager not long after. This happened after she found out I was looking into other companies as I was feeling dissatisfied with my lack of promotion. I had talked about seeking other roles within the company that would be less customer service oriented and she said she was supportive of that. When I would apply to jobs that were more in line with what I was looking for in the company, I would get great feedback from the interviewers. They would then ask my current manager for feedback and after that I would seemingly get rejected. I understand this section is speculative and would most likely omit it from any actual application.
· Aug 2015 – Jul 2016 Workers Compensation Insurance Adjuster at a top firm (Travelers/Hartford/Zurich type)
· Under minimal supervision interpreted and applied insurance contract policies exercising sound judgment in order to quickly reach outcome of fraud investigation while still maintaining high quality and meeting regulatory audits and requirements.
· Knowledgeable point of reference and correspondence for witnesses, agents, other insurance companies, medical providers, attorneys, and others.
· Utilized discipline, self-motivation and strong organizational skills to properly handle multiple tasks for proper case management of existing claims as a full caseload was often 100+ claims.
· Worked with internal partners on a special project to help conduct and report data driven risk analysis by identifying patterns and industry trends and researching strategies to reduce negative trends; provided qualitative feedback/analysis as an adjuster.
· Consistently led the department in client survey feedback in both number of survey responses and survey scores (never received less than a 9). Won the monthly competition 7 of the 8 months it was in place.
· Left on my own terms. Realized early on into the job that the insurance industry was not interesting to me nor where I wanted to be. Once I received a job offer from an Investment Management company, I put in my two weeks.
· Extra curriculars and other experience:
· I’m a religious individual. During undergrad I was very involved with my church in its ministry and even interned there. Since graduating, I have been heavily involved in youth ministry in poor areas that are heavily minority. I have a particular calling to kids of these backgrounds because I used to from a similar background and know many of them don’t see enough positive male role models who have been able to overcome many of the trappings that growing up in less-than-optimal conditions can provide. In this role, I am able to connect with youth and facilitate conversation about life, faith, and development with them.
· I also serve as a member of the Finance Council and Development Advisory Board of a local church. In these roles I take part in creating and monitoring budgeting and finances of the church as well as developing ideas to raise revenue and seek out potential tithing partners.
· Undergrad school/major:
· State School ranked outside of top 200. Double majored in Political Science and Business Economics
· Chose to attend there due to full-ride scholarships. Did not realize the importance of choosing certain colleges for certain career paths
· Other education/coursework:
· Masters in Finance at state school w/top 50 business program
· Graduated with a 3.5 GPA
· Race/nationality:
· Primarily Hispanic (mixed w/other minorities but not sure how it classifies)
· Sex:
· M
Stats
· GMAT Score: Include breakdown
· 670 (42q/40v). Looking/probably need to retake as it may expire soon. Think I can score 700+ since I took this before taking math/computer science classes at community college

Post graduation I worked at an insurance firm since it was the first role I was offered. Didn’t really like it but stayed about a year.
Worked at an investment management firm as a broker. Stayed for 21 months. The role was a call center environment and was not a good fit for what I was looking for. Struggled to get a promotion. Was ultimately fired
Took a job not long after doing the same thing at another broker. Was there for about 10 months. Was also fired over a weird reason elaborated further below but the broker sold their practice to a larger broker-dealer which I think factored in the decision.
After this I was feeling pretty down and lacking confidence in finding a career in business. I decided to try my hand at Computer Science and studied math and computer science at a local community college. Took a night shift job to cover cost of living after a semester. COVID hit and I decided it was best to not take hard math and computer science classes in an online environment.
After much deliberation, I explored and decided to attend a Masters in Finance program as a mini-MBA. I found a program that would suit me well and still had in-person options. Graduated in a year.
Accepted a job offer at a regional bank (in the S&P 500) working in Corporate Finance; specifically Corporate Profitability Analytics. The role is more data related and has me using SQL, Power BI, and other data related software/programs in addition to Excel. Currently 1.5 years in. Have been doing well and hoping to be able to gain a promotion soon although the company is sort of cheap when it comes to this sort of thing. While I don’t mind my current work, it is niche and not something I find particularly interesting outside of the skillset I’ve been able to gain.
If I weren’t considering applying to an MBA I’d probably start searching for other opportunities, however, I also realize that with my pre-MSF experience, the job hopping doesn’t look good and there will be more benefit to sticking with the company for almost 3 years at the start of the program and having a promotion under my belt.
MBA Info
· Why I want an MBA:
· Short-term I’m hoping to pivot into management/strategy consulting for my longer-term goal of being able to be a leader in my community. I would want to pivot into starting my own non-profit firm where I help members of low-income communities and URM owned businesses grow with the knowledge I gain from my consulting experience. I also think consulting would help with my eclectic nature and help with preventing the need to job hop given constantly being in new environments (probs wont mention this in an application though)
· Why I want one now:
· My current role is pretty niche in the banking industry. I’m afraid of being pigeonholed and the skillset I’m gaining, while desirable, isn’t necessarily one I see that aligns with my long-term goals.
· Target schools:
· Planning to apply through Consortium. Columbia (reach), Tuck, Yale, NYU, UVA, Rochester (safety school). Also open to applying outside of Consortium or changing the schools I apply to if better fit is recommended.
Background
· Work experience (starting from most recent)
· Nov 2021-Present; Corporate Financial Analyst at regional bank in S&P 500*.*
· I work in Corporate Profitability Analytics. While my title is a Financial Analyst, skillset wise, I would say my role is closer to a data analyst. I utilize SQL, Power BI, Excel, and other software to help develop, design and refine models to allow the bank to conduct data driven research in regards to the profitability of the bank. I develop and maintain reports and dashboards to disseminate information to executives and other relevant stakeholders and field questions and concerns related to the information.
· Oct 2020 – Aug 2020; Masters in Finance student at a state school
· This served as a mini-MBA for me. In my previous roles prior to this program, I was a bad fit as the roles were far too customer service oriented and led to me being fired from 2 of the roles and me quitting before I could be fired from another.
· December 2019 – July 2020 Bi-Lingual Fraud Representative at a large Credit Card Company (Capital One/DiscoveAmex type)
· This was a role I took on while I was considering a career switch into Computer Science/Financial Engineering. The role was a night shift and allowed me to work while taking classes.
· Left the role on my own terms as I wanted time to prepare for my Masters in Finance program
· Aug 2019 – March 2019; Math/Comp Sci student at community college
· Attended a local community college where I was majoring in Math/Computer Science as I was considering a career switch during a crisis of confidence. Took math, programming and engineering classes while attending. COVID struck during second semester and decided that taking a STEM heavy course load online was not optimal for me.Around this time, I decided to look into MBA’s and Masters in Finance programs. One MBA program (Rochester) really wanted me to apply there, but overall, I felt the MSF suited me better for my experience and where I was at in life. It would allow me to keep the MBA in the back pocket for any other potential switches.
· Oct 2018 – Jul 2019; Licensed Investment Professional at a Broker-Dealer
· Worked as a Series 7 and Series 63 licensed contractor. The company is large and serves a specified client base but did not have a large broker-dealer segment. Took a hands-on approach in all aspects of wealth and asset management: consulting and educating investors in mutual fund options and other products to help meet financial goals.
· Consistently led entire department in relationship management and engagement metrics: survey responses, survey scores, and new business development through sales referrals to advisory consultants in a fast-paced environment
· Consistently led entire department in operations and efficiency metrics while exceeding accuracy requirements and adhering to legal compliance through attention to detail
· Ended up being fired after a client complained to a friend of his in the Board of Directors that I wouldn’t help them with something that was not possible. The company ended up being bought out by a larger broker-dealer during that same month and they had been letting contractors expire w/out being renewed. I am under the impression they were downsizing regardless. I understand this section is speculative and would most likely omit it from any actual application.
·
· Nov 2016 – Aug 2018; Licensed Investment Professional at a top Broker-Dealer (PIMCO/Vanguard/Schwab type)
· Similar functional duties as other broker-dealer. In addition to those duties, demonstrated leadership and ability to work collaboratively through training and development of new hires, presentation of materials and investment methodology for new hires in multiple meetings, coaching, and mentorship of peers
· Voluntarily cross-trained and developed skills from higher level departments in order to liaison with those departments and assist in their service levels and learn new skills
· Consistently led the department in efficiency metrics such as calls taken and average handle time while maintaining high accuracy
· Ended up being placed on a performance improvement plan without warning and subsequently fired by my manager not long after. This happened after she found out I was looking into other companies as I was feeling dissatisfied with my lack of promotion. I had talked about seeking other roles within the company that would be less customer service oriented and she said she was supportive of that. When I would apply to jobs that were more in line with what I was looking for in the company, I would get great feedback from the interviewers. They would then ask my current manager for feedback and after that I would seemingly get rejected. I understand this section is speculative and would most likely omit it from any actual application.
· Aug 2015 – Jul 2016 Workers Compensation Insurance Adjuster at a top firm (Travelers/Hartford/Zurich type)
· Under minimal supervision interpreted and applied insurance contract policies exercising sound judgment in order to quickly reach outcome of fraud investigation while still maintaining high quality and meeting regulatory audits and requirements.
· Knowledgeable point of reference and correspondence for witnesses, agents, other insurance companies, medical providers, attorneys, and others.
· Utilized discipline, self-motivation and strong organizational skills to properly handle multiple tasks for proper case management of existing claims as a full caseload was often 100+ claims.
· Worked with internal partners on a special project to help conduct and report data driven risk analysis by identifying patterns and industry trends and researching strategies to reduce negative trends; provided qualitative feedback/analysis as an adjuster.
· Consistently led the department in client survey feedback in both number of survey responses and survey scores (never received less than a 9). Won the monthly competition 7 of the 8 months it was in place.
· Left on my own terms. Realized early on into the job that the insurance industry was not interesting to me nor where I wanted to be. Once I received a job offer from an Investment Management company, I put in my two weeks.
· Extra curriculars and other experience:
· I’m a religious individual. During undergrad I was very involved with my church in its ministry and even interned there. Since graduating, I have been heavily involved in youth ministry in poor areas that are heavily minority. I have a particular calling to kids of these backgrounds because I used to from a similar background and know many of them don’t see enough positive male role models who have been able to overcome many of the trappings that growing up in less-than-optimal conditions can provide. In this role, I am able to connect with youth and facilitate conversation about life, faith, and development with them.
· I also serve as a member of the Finance Council and Development Advisory Board of a local church. In these roles I take part in creating and monitoring budgeting and finances of the church as well as developing ideas to raise revenue and seek out potential tithing partners.
· Undergrad school/major:
· State School ranked outside of top 200. Double majored in Political Science and Business Economics
· Chose to attend there due to full-ride scholarships. Did not realize the importance of choosing certain colleges for certain career paths
· Other education/coursework:
· Masters in Finance at state school w/top 50 business program
· Graduated with a 3.5 GPA
· Race/nationality:
· Primarily Hispanic (mixed w/other minorities but not sure how it classifies)
· Sex:
· M
Stats
· GMAT Score: Include breakdown
· 670 (42q/40v). Looking/probably need to retake as it may expire soon. Think I can score 700+ since I took this before taking math/computer science classes at community college
· Undergrad GPA:
· 3.41 for Bachelors. (3.6 at community college)
· Grad School GPA
· 3.5
2023.06.02 04:40 schwiq NYU CAS CS vs Rutgers NB CS vs Boston University CS
I am an incoming sophomore, and I recently got accepted into NYU CAS for computer science. I only have until Tuesday to decide on NYU. The cost is around 84k per year or 60k per year (if I commute). I was also accepted into Boston University (86k per year), and Rutgers University NB (16k per year). My career aspiration for the future is to become a quantitative trader and I am considering getting a master's after undergrad. I come from a low-income family (qualifies for Garden State guarantee so I only need to pay for dorms at Rutgers), so I have to take loans.
I wondered what current students thought about taking 180k-252k in student loans post-graduation, and whether it would be worth it to pay the premium to attend NYU compared to the cost of Rutgers for in-state for a computer science bachelors degree. I know that NYU has solid placements for quantitative funds for graduates, like Citadel, and think that NYU is best positioned to enter into the quant world. Do you think the cost is worth it? Is paying off the debt realistic? If I can't secure a job in a quant firm post-graduation, will I be able to pay it off?
Would it be better to attend Rutgers and then attend a different school for a master's degree?

2023.06.01 20:27 Low-Succotash-7791 Has anybody gone to graduate school for writing/filmmaking
I have my Bachelor's degree and right after I graduated, I jump into working in the industry as a PA. In total, I've been a PA for about 4 years. It was great and I learned a lot, but I am ready to move on. It is very easy for me to just continue to PA but I don't think that is productive. It makes me hate set and production because I really don't feel like I am a part of the show and PA's make horrible money. I cannot place myself back on set in any capacity until I am a writer, director, and producer.
As the WGA is on strike, who knows how long I could be waiting to be able to send my scripts to agents and managers and have the option to actually get these scripts made.
In the meantime, I am thinking about enrolling in NYU for graduate writing. I truly know how a set runs, but I want to be on the creative side of filmmaking. I love New York City and at some part in my life, I see myself living there on and off. It just occured to me that when I graduate the program, I will be at most 29 years old! That seems so old to me as a part of my mind envsioned myself already being a working filmmaker with theatrical releases and multiple shows throughout that time and I wonder if school and working in my field is possible to balance, let alone would I want to finish the degree at that point. I know that NYU is infamous and I believe that I will be able to make many connections while there.
The strike happened as soon as I finished my last PA gig, and 2 months into the 9 month gig, I verbally told myself that "this is the last job I will ever be a PA again." And I meant it. I live in a major city, but it's not LA or NY. I am working on getting a job in broadcast/digital media, but I feel my heart is always going to be focused on writing. I love storytelling. It all starts there.
I wouldn't move until next spring/fall as my current lease is up in April. I need advice as this is a moment in my life where I have the possibility to take my career to the next level. It has never been as pertinent as it is now. I am excited about the future and what's next, I'm just not sure...maybe a little nervous about what to do as moving to New York City is a big, but doable, jump.

2023.05.31 04:25 AMenacetosociety1 Stevens vs George Washington U
I just received an admit from Stevens for masters in business intelligence and analytics. I have already finalised GWU MSBA before this and paid $2000 deposit as enrolment fee (non refundable). I would like to hear about the Business analytics courses of both the universities. In terms of course work, professors, resources, opportunities, career fairs.
I chose GWU because it’s business school is pretty good and the course curriculum was something i like. I have my close UG friends going there who I will be staying with. The location however isn’t the greatest since DC is more about international affairs and public relations and the internships for international students aren’t great either.
When it comes to Stevens I haven’t done a deep research yet. The location seems more promising than DC. I have a friend who goes to NYU who i could stay with. The career fairs at Stevens are more attractive than GWU. However the course curriculum isn’t really appealing to me and I would have to travel to the campus alone or make new friends while its different with GWU.
The tuition fee looks very similar for both and the living costs may differ slightly but thats not a big concern. I would like your opinion about this. Thank you
