The most prominent memory is of studying and debating statistics in the courtyard with my ‘syndicate’ group.

MBA Global Trip to China, Graduation Day & Graduation Dinner with Prof Alagidede!!! I want another MBA, I miss that place 🙂

The MBA program taught me that you can survive any hardship if you have a strong support network.
