š Want to partner with us? Sponsorships and brand deals: [email protected] How old is too old and how young is too young for getting your MBA? This is one of the most common questions weāve received from listeners and we tackle it head on in episode 2 of the Tiger Sisters video podcast series. We also start off with some candid highlights and lowlights from our week including a free peer therapy session for Jeanās fight against her engrained workaholic tendencies and Cherieās feelings of "profound loneliness" post-non-stop socializing at business school. We hope you find this episode enjoyable and helpful! Hi everyone, it's Cherie and Jean. We're giving an inside look into our experiences at GSB (Stanford) and HBS (Harvard) MBA programs, and beyond. Think of us as the internetās career big sisters! Let us know in the comments what other questions you have about career, school, or life. We want to share the ups and downs of our experiences so you can learn from our mistakes and choices. We've been there and we are here to help. šæ WATCH NEXT: Spilling the Tea: Harvard Business School (HBS) vs. Stanford Business School (GSB): Ā Ā Ā ā¢Ā IsĀ HarvardĀ BetterĀ ThanĀ Stanford?Ā Ā Ex-Google Startup Founder to Business School [Zach Boyette] Ā Ā Ā ā¢Ā Ex-GoogleĀ StartupĀ FounderĀ toĀ BusinessĀ Scho...Ā Ā General Partner at Lightspeed Ventures: Founder and Career Advice [Nicole Quinn] Ā Ā Ā ā¢Ā GeneralĀ PartnerĀ atĀ LightspeedĀ Ventures:Ā Fo...Ā Ā MBB Consulting Demystified [Mike Peng] Ā Ā Ā ā¢Ā ManagementĀ ConsultingĀ 101Ā Ā Decoding Wall Street: Investment Banking & Private Equity [Jennifer Hwang] Ā Ā Ā ā¢Ā DecodingĀ WallĀ Street:Ā InvestmentĀ BankingĀ &...Ā Ā Dare to Dream: Sequoia Managing Partnerās Career & Life Strategies [Roelof Botha] Ā Ā Ā ā¢Ā RoelofĀ Botha:Ā CareerĀ &Ā PersonalĀ LessonsĀ fr...Ā Ā From Newsroom to Classroom [Glenn Kramon] Ā Ā Ā ā¢Ā LifeĀ LessonsĀ FromĀ StanfordĀ MBAĀ WritingĀ Pro...Ā Ā From India to Stanford MBA [Vishal Sahoo] Ā Ā Ā ā¢Ā FromĀ IndiaĀ toĀ StanfordĀ MBA:Ā HowĀ HeĀ DidĀ ItĀ Ā From College Dropout to Stanford Startup Entrepreneur [Katherine Gruneisen] Ā Ā Ā ā¢Ā CollegeĀ DropoutĀ toĀ StanfordĀ StartupĀ Entrep...Ā Ā MY FREE ONLINE GUIDES: šš»āāļø 100+ MBA Interview Question Prep: https://shop.beacons.ai/cherie.brooke... š MBA M7 School Comparison Document: https://shop.beacons.ai/cherie.brooke...
