This is a timely thread. I had been wrestling with doing my MBA and every single person I've spoken to who has done it has not hesitated in recommending that I do it. Just starting the application process now but the things that worry me are being able to work at the same time as going to school, writing papers again etc.

I am at a crossroads career-wise and every time I began looking at options, the MBA came up as a better answer as opposed to making moves to other organizations.

I also decided to pay for it myself as some people advised that having your company pay for the education really can handcuff your ability to use the new credentials upon graduation.
