[@mikemer79]

what a unprofessional way to end the conversation

[@manuelgutierrezayech8316]

Agree

[@yusufabdurrauf7429]

Murican woman.

[@0401412740]

just interrupted him.

[@Staygloww]

What's the heck wrong with these tv hosts who keep interrupt the guy they're interviewing and not even let him finish. smh

[@arnoldchester8915]

That was such a silly way of interrupting the speaker, so freaking unprofessional of the female presenter...

[@nazrulislambeng]

An MBA doesnt necessarily get you a higher salary or a better job. But does give you a second chance to "diversify"

[@thebombsters]

How rude, what a way to cut off someone.

[@KhadijahCelestine]

why ask a question when you know you have 30 seconds left????

[@nikosv8166]

you are so hot!

[@KhadijahCelestine]

Breon Mitchell how you know I'm on the gram lol @mhmmsheknowshebad

[@KhadijahCelestine]

Nikos V Thanks! lol

[@yusufabdurrauf7429]

Americaaaaaaaa

[@kouxiong7773]

When the hosts couldn't get the answers they wanted out of the Dean they knew they needed to cut the interview.

[@francoisrautenbach270]

Lets just get this straight, the MAIN focus of getting an education such as an MBA should be to BETTER your understanding of a certain subject, not just to say I'm better than you because I have an MBA, employers are looking for people who can do a job well by having the necessary knowledge of a subject, and having an MBA translates to just that. Not to gain respect and an image.

[@cal31BRIAN23]

I am currently in Japan, in one of the best schools in the country, in a global MBA program. How do you guy feel this MBA will be received in the US?

[@bluerisk]

Stanford is not right next to the Silicon valley, the Silicon valley is right next to Stanford.

[@willre00]

The Dean seem likes a cool guy, the female interviewer is annoying though

[@Essays4College]

Why do people put 'MBA' after their names in their signatures?

[@anarki777]

*HOW MANY WOMEN ARE IN THE PROGRAM!!!!??????*

[@love2beat]

terrible reporting.

[@Zohirul-Jewel]

They should have compared it to Harvard too not just Standford.

[@dkiperman]

If the value of an MBA is so uncertain that people have debate its virtues, it's probably not that valuable. I'm living proof.

[@asotomayor]

David Kiperman you hit the nail good sir. I've been considering this degree quite seriously but my gut tells me I don't need it. I am a Canadian Chartered Accountant, got a good job in an area I truly enjoy, and an industry I've always wanted to be in. Do you recommend going into debt to get skills I am learning on the job anyway by dealing directly with C-level executives and Directors?

[@EllisAlcantara]

A MBA from a T10 school is worth it

[@dom1abc1mbc]

unless youre sponsored then its a no brainer

[@michaelpreston233]

Depends on Talent and some Friends are nice to have. That's the real world.

[@SeanOHanlon]

I wouldn't want anyone else in the roll of CFO than a Wharton grad.

[@GreatValueBleach]

They forgot President Trump, he went to Wharton

[@hallohallo1260]

He only has a BA not an MBA

[@patrickblair2818]

I went to the hospital and my principal refused to allow me to make up my missed assignments, which brought down my GPA.

[@ndndndxxx3]

Elon doesn't have an MBA.

[@godwinokoro4283]

Right, but in the video they explained that Elon Musk received an education at the Wharton School of Business. This does not necessarily mean that he received an MBA.

[@stomiball889]

Mmh really..the ending

[@pbro5899]

3:45 LMAO

[@OddTJ]

Very poor interviewers here on Bloomberg...

[@hopeinsf]

1. Women are subject to lower standards in entering Wharton for full-time MBA. Almost all my friends who went there are women. 2. This topic can easily be discussed for 30 minutes. The TV platform has such a short attention span.

[@jdtgfgvs1977]

A Hsu can you provide evidence of this?

[@MrDodger3222]

I seriously doubt it

[@patrickblair2818]

What does the data say about me? I had a 4.3 in HS and I tried to start a hedge fund...... my office materials and business plans were confiscated/stolen. What now? Political Risk?

[@user-lu6yg3vk9z]

An M.B.A degree has the same value of as a toilet paper.

[@alicezhao5815]

dont look down the value a toilet paper during covid-19:)

[@NoName-bh4pf]

A toilet paper?

[@coreywilliams1454]

The potential to earn 300k the year you leave, definitely seems like a waste of time

[@user-lu6yg3vk9z]

Corey Williams That’s the key word maybe earn. There is no guarantee. Plenty of people with MBA who couldn’t get a job with the degree. Market is saturated.

[@coreywilliams1454]

@@user-lu6yg3vk9z If you go to an M7 school, something like 98% achieve job offers before they leave. The rest of top 15 is about 90%. Anywhere outside top 15 is probably pointless, but going to a top M7 school assures you will be a high earner.
