MSF Dilemma

Hello,

I was recently admitted to the UT MSF last week. I have to decide fairly soon if I'm going to do it. Aside from the technical skills you gain from the completing the program, it also helps you set up for a great job.

My "dilemma" is that I most likely will be able to land a similar job through resume and connections. Should I do the MSF or just direct my energy towards getting a job (preferred: IB, consulting). I have minimal modeling/valuation experience. Please let me know what you think.

Thanks
