You’re blocked. Just so many posters on ignore lately you have to view all to figure out what’s going on here.

Would be easier if people weren’t using multiple accounts posting the same grift in different ways.

For whatever reason, Justine was just not a fit here....It wasn't for lack of self practice, because there were too many local articles written about her gym rat habits, while in New Jersey....She, along with her twin sister, lived in the gym...Not likely she just stopped self practicing...

The girl has said nothing bad about UT, it's coaches, or it's fans, let's just leave it at
that and wish her well...

That is just not how it works. Let's break it down. A good bit of MBA curriculum is pretty standardized (particularly in the first year). So, the Vandy and MTSU classses may use similar text books, similar cases and so on. There is likely some difference in expertise across faculty but let's not dwell on that.

Here are the clear differences.

Students in the Vandy program will have GMAT scores (the entrance exam) that ranger beween 650 and 700. Average GMAT for an MTSU student is going to 550 to 600. So, students are coming in with better academic backgrounds and aptitudes so they can pushed more, particularly in the quant direction.

Third, when you enter into a MBA you are not just earning a degree you are gaining acccess to alumni networks and a host of corporate connections for internships and jobs after graduation. Honestly, Vandy's MBA program (the Owen School of Business) is not even that elite (Ranked 27th by US News and World Reports) but it dominates the placement potential of an MTSU,.

Great, an endorsement of classic elitism. These rankings are dumb and not based on science.

There's some truth in the internships and placements, but that's a problem that society should be trying to eliminate. Hiring on the basis of an alumni group isn't much different than straight up nepotism.

Are all kids who get A’s entitled? Or is it just high academic kids from schools like Vanderbilt. Would a kid who got into both Tennessee and Vanderbilt be considered entitled?

It depends on the kid. I've talked to some A students that are grounded and some that think they are very special. Give me the grounded A students all day long, but I'll take a level headed B student over the "special" A students.

Explaining how things work is not necessarily an endorsement. There is an education hierarchy. An MBA from MTSU is not going to open as many doors as one from Stanford or Harvard. The ratings are far from perfect but they are measurable outcomes-- Average Gmat scores, starting salaries for graduates, placement rates

I've never heard that knock. In fact, we were always told the opposite.

Nothing like revisionist history...

I haven't heard that either. I gather that she wants to start now and she's calculated that wasn't going to happen this year at Tennessee.

Based on how she was playing, she just hadn't earned it.

All we heard was "gym rat," "work ethic," "Kellie's type of player," etc. Amazing how the narrative changes...

Welp Justine can kiss her professional chances away ...WNBA at least , Vandy wont be winning no time soon nor are they putting players in the pros.

No offense to Justine, but I don't think she was destined for the WNBA to begin with, even if she had a nice college career.

Wonder what her degree will be in. She will probably make more with a degree (and maybe enjoy life more) than she would have made in the WNBA, and her chances of making it to the WNBA is probably as good as her chances of making it while at UT.

I worked for a Fortune 5 company. During the time I sat in on hiring decisions we chose a Tenn Tech grad over a Vanderbilt grad. A Vanderbilt degree is not helpful in all fields.

My husband worked for pharmaceutical company over 35 years and he would hire the state u grad over the Vanderbilt everyday of the week . The state grad was hungry , hustled and put in long days and didn’t think they knew everything. They were also grateful to work their way up and earn their promotions . Vandy grads sometimes ( not all ) think they are entitled to the best now .

If she colleges her degree, she’ll be in a great position.
