What surprised you the most about being an MBA student?
What surprised me most about being an MBA student at SOM is how customizable the experience truly is. From the courses you choose to the clubs you join and the careers you pursue, you really have the freedom to shape your own path. SOM offers a well-rounded program filled with passionate students who, despite being here for just two years, are deeply committed to making a lasting impact and many are already doing just that.
