Hey there,
good to hear from you!
And the JD/MBA program at Cornell is ambitious!
So first let me get to your questions:
1. Good question. And it's up to you. I fear that with 3 years you may be overloaded. I understand you wanting to cut back on the costs. But my suggestion is to get in contact with people who did both and chat with them. I can try and hook you up with someone, but I have to ask around first.
2. Not necessarily. But if they like and if the goals you present for the JD/MBA program make sense, they will see it as a package. You should not email the Adcom with this question because they will never answer or never answer you truthfully about how they make their admissions decisions.
3. The ranking of Cornell's JD and MBA is actually pretty good. Plus Cornell is an Ivy League. And Investment banks hire from Cornell. So you should be fine. Dont worry about the CFA. Everyone has a CFA. If you do the JD/MBA they will be looking to put you in more of a legal role, which should work out to your advantage.
Ultimately, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain! So just do well on that GMAT and go for it.
And if you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask!
