<p>How possible is it to double major in 6-3 and in Management from the Sloan School? What about majoring in 6-3 and minoring in Management from the Sloan school?</p>
<p>And how likely is it for mit students to get into good business schools directly after graduating from the Sloan school?</p>
<p>And how do students get into the Sloan school exactly?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Anything’s possible - it just depends how much pain you want to endure 
Obviously, minoring is much easier than majoring.</p>
<p>You apply to MIT as an institution undergraduate and don’t pick your major until the end of freshman year. They don’t admit by major.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>MBA programs don’t admit people who just graduated from college.</p>
<p>Thanks for answering my questions. here are some new ones:</p>
<p>Okay…(from collegealum314 response) but then where do those students go after majoring in management from Sloan?</p>
<p>And what is the criteria to get into Sloan as a freshman?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>What do you mean? You can’t pick a major as a freshman. If you’re talking about picking your major at the end of the year, there isn’t a separate application to picking a major. For the most part, you just pick it (the one exception being biological engineering, but that won’t effect any of the classes after 2012, who are the current freshmen).</p>
<p>
Mostly they go to work, although some go to law school or to master’s/PhD programs in another field. As collegealum says, MBA programs don’t generally admit students straight from undergrad – work experience is a major factor in MBA admissions.</p>
<p>You can find the graduating student surveys for the past few years [url=<a href=“http://web.mit.edu/career/www/infostats/graduation.html]here[/url”>http://web.mit.edu/career/www/infostats/graduation.html]here[/url</a>]; they tell you what kinds of things MIT students do after graduation in general, and also break down employment and salaries by major.</p>
<p>(Incidentally, after graduating from MIT with a degree in management, you may not want to get an MBA immediately anyway – many of the undergrad Sloan classes are joint grad/undergrad classes, so if you did an MBA right after Sloan undergrad, it would mean repeating a substantial part of your undergraduate coursework.)</p>
<p>Thank you that was a big help!</p>
<p>from MIT’s graduating student survey: "WHAT IS THE AVERAGE FOR JOB APPLICATIONS/INTERVIEWS/JOB OFFERS?<br>
Degree Level Job Applications Job Interviews Job Offers
Undergraduate 13.0% 7.6% 2.1%
Masters 9.2% 6.4% 2.2
Doctoral 14.9% 6.0% 2.6% </p>
<p>why are the percentages so low? MIT’s such a great school</p>
<p>Based on prior years, I suspect this chart is incorrect – the data should be absolute numbers, not percentages. That is to say, the average student applied to 13 jobs, got 7.6 interviews, and got 2.1 offers. Those may sound low, but remember that a student may stop interviewing after getting and accepting a really great offer.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Actually, (top) MBA programs only rarely admit people who just graduated from college. But it does happen.</p>
<p>For example, here’s Christopher Wilson-Byrne, who finished his undergrad at BC in 2007 and went directly to Harvard Business School, class of 2009.</p>
<p><a href=“http://www.hbs.edu/mba/profiles/students/cwilsonbyrne.html[/url]”>http://www.hbs.edu/mba/profiles/students/cwilsonbyrne.html</a></p>
<p>And of course if we’re talking about MBA programs that are not top programs, they admit students straight out of college all the time.</p>
<p>"There are a few classes that are notoriously difficult to lottery into (like some Management classes offered through the Sloan school and some of the pre-med lab requirements), " taken from [MIT</a> Admissions | Blog Entry: “10 things I love about MIT”](<a href=“http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/life/student_life_culture/10_things_i_love_about_mit_1.shtml]MIT”>http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/life/student_life_culture/10_things_i_love_about_mit_1.shtml)</p>
<p>Why is it difficult to get into these classes, the sheer amount of people who want to take them? Is it a first come first served basis?</p>
<p>I’m not sure why it’s difficult, just that Sloan does have a bidding system for courses.</p>
<p>You can find some more information at the [Sloan</a> Bidding](<a href=“https://sloanbid.mit.edu/registrar-student/Home.tap]Sloan”>https://sloanbid.mit.edu/registrar-student/Home.tap) website.</p>

<p>It’s because Sloan classes, unlike classes at most other majors at MIT, or any other university for that matter, are heavily predicated on lively class discussion. There are no Sloan lecture style courses where the flow of information is purely one-way from the professor to the students. Management students are supposed to be active participants in every class, but that can happen only when the course size is limited.</p>
