我很赞同论坛里面同学的一句话,MBA是工具而不是目的,应该等你工作了再做决定。

另外再送LZ一句话,
如果以五十岁时的成功作为标准来制定计划,那么即使这个人非常成功,ta的一生也不过只活了一个五十岁而已。

...no Chinese keyboard again...
Lz, planning early doesn't necessarily mean plan well. It is always better to view MBA as an alternative in your career plan than as the plan itself. When you get a dream job after MBA, that is only the start of your career story, not the ending. People do make short-term efforts to get into good MBA programs but it's only optimal when there is no better alternative.

To make it clear, MBA is never a prerequistie for a higher level position for PE/VC or IB/consulting. In your case, your first full-time job is so much more important. It not only defines the chance of getting into a top Bschool in the future but also shapes your whole career ahead. If you are really interested in consulting and with so much part-time experience, why don't you focus on getting a management consulting job now? It could be hard but don't imagine it would be really easy to do it even with an MBA. Say you are ready to invest years of efforts to get a consulting job, then show such commitment now. A resume revised for 10+ times, participation in all recruiting events, networking with alums and recruiters, ... There are so many things you can do now.

I feel like being enlightened reading what you wrote. I couldn't thank you enough. You're right, the highest priority now for me is to get a consulting job. Although I mentioned I'm trying, but obviously I haven't been trying my best. Thanks again.

I should probably start by polishing my resume and asking resume critiques from consulting industry insiders, which I luckily know a few. : )
