OP Likes Earned: 0 Well Cambridge has a much lower cost, and I already hold a graduate degree, so a 1 year program is appealing. I also note CJSB is skyrocketing in rankings. (0)

Anon Likes Earned: 0 Are you switching careers, or returning to consulting? (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 Switching. (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 If you already hold a graduate degree, a 1 year may make more sense in terms of costs and take you where you want after the MBA. INSEAD and Cambridge are great 1 year options. I am heading to INSEAD. (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 I already hold a LSE graduate degree. Im still going to LBS or Kellogg. Like you I'm a career switcher and see zero value add from Judge. The brand is not accretive and its a short program that is less helpful for switchers. Furthermore, CJSB is clearly tier2. (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 I have selected LBS over Wharton. London location wins and very diverse career op. and other industries (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 LBS over Wharton is a bit dodgy, but I'm seriously considering it over Kellogg. Going to Kellogg for me has the fun-factor as I'm a UK citizen. LBS>Judge is a no brainer (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 Not dodgy at all, phily for me has no pluses and London has great employment in the finance industry.. at the end everything is personal (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 if you don't need the brand name Wharton because you have a prestigious undergrad or can speak a European language than LBS is a great pick. If you can only speak English and you are a US citizen, then not so much... Personal factors should play a larger part in people's choices but they dont! (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 Career switch? Def LBS. Not a career switch? Go where you'd have the most fun. (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 Definitely LBS ! Has a better MBA brand, maybe only second to Insead in MBB placements (internationally). Also the program is very interesting as well. You have a lot more flexibility with the 15-18-21 month options. Multiple internships will help you if you're a career switcher. (0)
