I know I want to get into consulting post MBA. I am not inclined towards Finance or Marketing. I work in the IT industry and sort of understand IT consulting. I am confused about Strategy Consulting.<BR/><BR/>How did u go about researching on your short term goals and how did you finalize your long term goals. Pls share your thoughts!

The MBA itself is a life-transforming experience..<BR/>Add to it that it's not really easy to predict what'll be the shape of biz 15 years from now.. (Temme how many of them cud have predicted e-business and things like that 20 years back)<BR/><BR/>That said.. they do expect you to have a decent understanding of what your short term goals are and what do they lead you to if u attain them successfully.. ( In ideal situation, they'll expect the short term goals to lead to ur long term goals ) <BR/>So go ahead,u can afford to be a bit unclear (as per my understanding) about the long term goals, but make sue that there's no disconnect b/w the short term and long term goals.. :-)<BR/><BR/>If I can be of any help, drop me a comment at my blog or a mail at quizophobic(at)gmail<BR/><BR/>Gud Luck!!<BR/>ShobhitAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5317343780461405439.post-22148260601720477992007-10-02T11:33:00.000-07:002007-10-02T11:33:00.000-07:00Hey dreamerI've talked about this with many people...Hey dreamer<BR/>I've talked about this with many people including he alums and adcom people I've met at recent admission events that I've attended. <BR/><BR/>They say that it's perfectly okay of you're not very clear about your long term goals..
