Am I reading the chart on that page correctly that the post-graduation salary is on average 20-30% less for most MBA graduates?

I find that to be a shocking figure after the 2 years and huge amount of money that people generally invest in getting an MBA.




I think that they must have transposed the labels. The graph must mean that a student who goes into Harvard leaves an $80,000 a year salary and after two years gets a $115,000 a year salary. That doesn't tell us all that much unless we know how much that same person would be making if he or she stayed in the workforce for those two years.


The graph must have been done by someone without a MBA...


I think they had to have switched the keys by accident.
