I wouldn't bother.

If you are entering a top 5 b-school, why compromise the cost, effort and opportunities for 2 more years of CFA.

MBAs are more useful for career changers so focus your attention on that. No point going halve-sies and risking CFA fail or networking opportunities AND spending less time with the family.

Remember, to use the designation you need 4 yrs of relevant experience. You won't get this by the time u finish ur MBA anyway. You have level 1 already... add that to ur fancy pants MBA and you got yourself a nice package

So save yourself the 300+ hrs/yr, and spend it on ur family + mba. With this path you'll have no regrets.

But don't take my word... ask the wife!
