<p>I heard that students with business undergraduate major are very hard to be admitted into top mba program? Is that correct? Anyone can help me?</p>
<p>no wrong wrong wrong where you work is what matters. </p>
<p>work experience is the most important factor for MBA admissions. the reason that you dont see a lot of business majors in b-school is because the top schools in America (harvard, yale, princeton, etc) do not have business as a major.</p>
<p>Great, thanks. I see. But one more thing, is there any majors that are more preferred by mba program?</p>
<p>whatever will get you that good work experience.</p>
<p>Any major that will get you into investment banking. For example 2-3 years at Blackstone is worth SOOO MUCH MORE than 6-7 years in an engineering firm since the Blackstone ibanker works SOOO MUCH HARDER.</p>
<p>Engineering firms work you hard.
Blackstone works you HARD.</p>
<p>You get what I mean.</p>
<p>2 years as an ibanker/management consultant+3.6<UGPA+700<GMAT= HarvardStanfordWhartonNorthwesternTuckRossColumbiaChicago or some other top 20 business school.</p>
<p>What if I get CPA, CFA, or CFP before I apply for top 20 business school? Does it help a lot?</p>
<p>I guess so....it can't hurt you.</p>
<p>Thank you! You hope to get in MBA program for fall 2007?</p>
<p>Me? Hell no. Still in high school. I'm hoping to get into NYU Stern undergrad college for fall 07. MBA in 2013 or something.</p>
