<p>Sorry if these are really basic questions. THANKS!</p>
<p>Start by researching the topic.</p>
<p>where and how?</p>
<p>I didn’t know you need MCAT for MBA…</p>
<p>You dont…you take the GMAT for an MBA</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Business, Econ/Finance, or Ballet are the only majors accepted by the top MBA programs.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Don’t. Take the LSAT instead.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>After you get accepted to a business school.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>This really depends on the school. Most require at least 1 from your mom, 2 from past employeers, and 1 from a congressman or senator.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Yes, at least 2 years or 2000 miles, which ever comes first</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Don’t listen to anything I say… maybe lurker more at a forum before posting, and if you used google to find this site maybe you can use it to find awnsers to those questions.</p>
<p>Try <a href=“http://www.mba.com%5B/url%5D”>www.mba.com</a></p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Google, yahoo, reading old posts in this forum.</p>
<p>Does the OP have the MCAT confused with the GMAT, or an MBA confused with an MD?</p>
<p>Yea I’m not sure which he has confused. Japher…thats absolutely hilarious. I’m cracking up over here.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Go to MBA.com. It should provide a good idea of the basics of how to get started. </p>
<p>If you want to find out more of what you can do with an MBA they will have stuff there as well. Also, try looking at Wikipedia.org’s MBA article.</p>
<p>do i need a major or i can minor in man econ?</p>
<p>Do you need a major? Yes.</p>
<p>Are you asking whether you need to major specifically in managerial economics? In that case, the answer is no.</p>
<p>sweet ballet =]</p>
<p>what about a phil/polisci major with a minor in man econ?</p>
<p>i heard there were specific courses i need to take for business school such as calc… can i test out of these courses with ap credits or do i actually need to take them at my college</p>
<p>Your major in and of itself doesn’t matter. It will, however, affect your job prospects, and those do matter.</p>
<p>but if i go to business school… my job prospects will depend on the major i choose in business school not undergraduate.. correct?</p>
<p>Run, you need to have post-graduate work experience to get into a good MBA program.</p>
<p>ugh, can i work over the summer? what about work in high school does that qualify?</p>
<p>also, are their any required courses i need to take?</p>
<p>No and no. And I don’t think so but I’ll let somebody else answer.</p>
<p>As far as I know most, as in 99%, people admitted to a top MBA program have atleast 2 years of full time work experience. Preferably this work experience is in something that shows leadership or entrepreneurship ability.</p>
<p>

<p>By business school I assume you mean Masters programs? You can get a business degree as an undergrad at a business school. After that you will need the experience to get a masters degree in business and administration (MBA), which doesn’t care what your undergrad degree in. However, your career choice after an MBA may be impacted by your undergrad degree choice.</p>
<p>Pilosophy and political science are two decent majors, but I think you will have a hard time finding employment that will qualify you for an MBA program.</p>
<p>As for specific courses; I would take calc. MBA programs like to see that you can handle the quantitative parts. However, if you decide not to take these classes, getting a high quant score on the MBA will/should be enough.</p>
