<p>can someone please give me a list of top/really good business school in the northeastern areaish..also rank it from the top to bottom</p>
<p>yeah i jsut saw that, I'm interested in MIT sloan, but will my application be mixed with strong engineering applicants? and if i somehow get into MIT, can i take an engineering course along with my business major? im interested in cornell and BC though.</p>
<p>My only problem is it's very hard for me to get business EC's through school. My EC's are good and science oriented but i still want to pursue business in college. will they hold this against me?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Babson. Not as well known as Sloan, Stern, or Wharton, but it's a killer program, all about undergrads.</p>
<p>ehh i'm not a big fan of it, but can any1 answer my EC question?</p>
<p>ivyleague104, i have ther same problem about ecs as you. I was in an accelerated program that didnt really offer business courses, mostly mathematics and sciences</p>
<p>we are very similar pmaliu, i saw ur chance thread before</p>
<p>JbVirtuoso notes that Babson has, " a killer program, all about undergrads."</p>
<p>Response: Actually, Babson has a killer program for entrepreneurship. Its other programs don't have the same reputation.</p>
<p>I STRONGLY suggest that you forget about the rankings and check out the schools. Each school has its strengths and foibles. For example, Bentley has a very strong program in both accounting and finance and has a strong liberal arts offering as well being similar to a LAC. Sloan might have some great connections in NY,but being a city school has it drawbacks. Again, check out each school that you are thinking of applying to.</p>
<p>Your lack of "business EC's" shouldn't be held against you. Most kids have ECs that don't relate to their prospective major. As long as your EC's show some sort of "staying power" and sustained interests, you should be fine.</p>
<p>is it accurate to say that in all fields of business wharton is the best?</p>
<p>Not all... at least not in Accounting (UT-Austin), Enterpreneurship(Babson), MIS(MIT/CMU); Operation Management(MIT/CMU); Supply Chain Management(Michigan State/MIT).</p>

MIT does not admit by major or by school, so prospective management students must compete in the same pool as prospective scientists and engineers.</p>
<p>Once at MIT, students can pursue any major or combination of majors at the school. About 20% of MIT students graduate with a double major, and it's pretty common for students to complete a management major along with an engineering major.</p>
<p>For Elite Business Jobs (finance/ consulting):</p>
<p>1) Wharton, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, MIT Sloan
2) Dartmouth, Penn, Columbia, Duke
3) Brown, Northwestern, Williams, Amherst, Cornell, Chicago</p>
<p>Add NYU Stern, Berkeley Haas, and Michigan-Ross in category 2-3.</p>
<p>Villanova too</p>
<p>does cornell give you the option to take say bio/chem courses along with the econ and management courses in AEM </p>
<p>(its all CALS right so i don't see why they want you to pick the department)..</p>
<p>Villanova? Not in the top 40 schools that get you business jobs.</p>
