I was asked by a few fellow Amazonian and LinkedIn connections about my experience with Quantic School of Business & Technology, so I decided to share my thoughts here.
First of all, I am incredibly grateful to all the Quantic team for giving me the opportunity of being part of this fantastic journey. I have always wanted to pursue an MBA. However, I did not have the time or the budget to go to a traditional business school. Therefore, when a co-worker mentioned that Quantic had a rigorous MBA program that was flexible and affordable, I was very interested.
Here’s my journey so far.
I applied to the MBA program while pregnant with my second child -yes, this program is flexible enough to follow it while taking care of my two kids and a full-time job-. The acceptance rate is very competitive (less than 7% acceptance), but Quantic contacted me to apply for the Executive program, even more exclusive. A few weeks after applying to the EMBA, I received an invitation for a virtual interview, which happened on the same day I was released from the hospital after a C-Section. Could that be possible in a traditional Business School? Not if you have to go for an in-person interview. Two months after, I received an email from Quantic letting me know that I was ACCEPTED into the program!
On November 4th, 2019, I started the program, and so far, my experience has been terrific. I want to highlight the following:
To sum up, I could not be happier with my Quantic experience. They have exceeded my expectations in terms of the quality of the curriculum and the flexibility they offer in comparison to other online programs. Therefore, I highly recommend anyone thinking about Quantic apply. I hope you all get accepted!
Good luck in the application process, and please let me know if there is anything I can help you.

Thank you for your article. was reached by Quantic staff on LinkedIn. Didn't know what was this school about, but followed all the instructions for the interview and application process. Got accepted still not having much information about it or a clear decision whether I need it or not, but your article made my decision. Thank you:)

Thank you for the great perspective. I got accepted to another very respected master's program but in the end the $90K/year price tag, non-responsive staff, and lack of flexibility led me to give a serious look at Quantic. I just got accepted to their EMBA program and am already loving taking their available courses and look forward to starting formally in April!

what's radical is being successful without needing to be beholden to some institution. They think spamming me with a guilt trip about needing them is going to further my success. I did it on my own. I don't need you, or any other internet college telling me how to run my life. And I certainly won't be paying those loans. Is it worth it. Nope. Not at all. Invest in yourself. Degrees don't get you in doors anymore. 🤷♂️ watch this get censored. I hope you have to pay linkedin to do it.
