I have to make a decision and I am totally stuck. Situation is this:
* 2nd year MBA @ top school
* former MM banker
* sponsored by MM bank I came from
* opportunity has just emerged to go work for a BB bank
* would have to repay tuition if I take BB opportunity, but I don't think I'll get the BB opportunity again if I go back to MM banking
What should I do? If you have thoughts but need more detail, please PM me. I've used the message board before but have never asked for help like this.

This
Trazers rule of what if necessitates you take it
If you've already done a MM banking stint, why the hell would you want to go back? Even to a BB?
I do not understand some people, why would u pay 160k for a job at a BB?
If a bank invest 160k for you to go to bschool, they can't be that shitty. How long do you have to work for them post bschool?
What's the difference in salary / promotional opps? Is there some sort of ceiling at your MM that doesn't exist at the BB? Chances are if you're that good, assuming you are b/c the bank is paying 200k for your schooling, you won't have a problem lateraling to a mid-level role at a BB w/ a top tier MBA and great work exp at a MM.
