Disclaimer: Nothing said by Miss MBA during the course of exam week should be taken
completely at face value. She is under a great deal of stress and might be given to hasty, whiny and annoyingly short-sighted pronouncements like, “Why did I leave my comfortable, income-earning, cocktails-at-happy-hour life for academic, nose-to-the-grindstone, pauper student hell? Whyyyyy?”
Exams started today. Five hours of sweating over marketing left me wondering why I was paying $100K+ for the privilege of working my tail off and still feeling stupid.
As always, the Simpsons say it better than I ever could. Kudos to classmate Britt who posted this lovely clip on Facebook:
Marge’s take on grad students.
And, just for fun, here’s Liz Lemon and Jack Donaghy’s take on grad students.

It always hurts a little when you stretch yourself. Be glad you are stretching, and you aren’t afraid to do it.
