No, actually Daddy isn't really a very popular man at his company because it's his job to tell execs. that they're doing their jobs wrong... So I don't think that Daddy's company is going to hire Accygirl as a VP anytime soon. However, Accygirl is going to get accepted by a top MBA program because she worked her a** off in college and graduated Summa Cum Laude from the University of Illinois with a degree in accounting. But I guess that's it's too hard for your little brain to comprehend that a woman might actually be that smart and that driven that she can succeed without the help of Daddy or her husband...

(BTW, those median MBA salaries (which includes all MBA program, not just the elite schools) look pretty good to me. A heck of alot better than the guy who changes my oil at Jiffy Lube makes).

To: Accygirl

I hate to re-open what appears to be a dead thread, but your responses have finally provoked me to the point that I am willing to do just that. I currently work with many MBA grads from the schools that you mention, and I can say with impunity that these grads are just about the most ignorant (not stupid) folks that I work with. I am currently employed by a Fortune 5 company that rewards these grads very well.

The problems that they face is that they are so elitist that they think they have no reason to learn the business. They think that their grad degree entitles them to constant promotion, without them having to ever actually learn the business. They are destroying the company that I work for. They are the enemy of success.

Now, I am not stating that you are headed down that path, but your posts sure ring of the same type of elitism. Please consider this as constructive criticism, that is all that I mean by it. My feedback is the same for either the men or women graduates.

In addition, I can tell you that very few of the women that I know from these major programs, with MBA degrees, are happily married. Many of them are miserably single. Yes, they were advanced to high status positions, but they are not truly happy. On the other hand, the men in the same positions are generally happily married and are providing for their spouse. There is a stark difference.
