I wanted an international career since I was a teenager. Everything I have done so far—as a lawyer, international prosecutor, grad student—has been about this. But my ultimate entrée will be business, with its tremendous influence, transparency, and potential to get things done.
I did the metrics on MBA programs: Tuck's size (I've had the 2,000-person class experience), its network (who needs an alumnus president you can't call?), its access (recruiters love this school!) all add up. And for me in particular, it's Tuck's strong analytics, modeling, and quants.
But more than anything, Tuck has a vibe that's completely different from other schools. It's all about individual development here. Tuck wants you to succeed as a person.
