<p>This is a complete hypothetical. Say I start my own business and make $100,000 + a year. Will a business school look over that like any other useless EC millions of kids put on their apps or would they be genuinely impressed?</p>
<p>Of course it would be impressive. Most businesses go out of business the first year - even if you made a fraction of that, it would be something of note.</p>
<p>yea.. make 10,000 a year for 3 years in profit and you will be considered AMAZING!</p>
<p>lol yeah $100,000 in one year is amazing...</p>
<p>First, what are you dealing?
Second, is it a pyramid scheme?
Third, if the answers for the first two are no, then do you offer stock of your company?</p>
<p>I'd "hypothetically" skip college.</p>
<p>hypothetically, did your parents buy 100,000 dollars worth of whatever you are selling? if not, then you're pretty good at what you do.</p>
<p>I doubt any high schooler could make $100K.</p>
<p>Not true- this girl makes $70,000 a month from a Myspace layouts site. <a href="http://www.thomasdemaesschalck.com/17-year-old-girl-makes-up-to-70000-a-month-with-myspace-site%5B/url%5D">http://www.thomasdemaesschalck.com/17-year-old-girl-makes-up-to-70000-a-month-with-myspace-site</a></p>
<p>It's pretty awesome.</p>
<p>I hope it means something. I made over $100k in 2 years. My academic profile/ECs suck!</p>
<p>Hopefully colleges will take my business into account...</p>
<p>they will..and your financial aid will suck big time......</p>
<p>Why would you need to go to college if you already make so much money...</p>
<p>Not everyone goes to college simply because they want to make six figures. Sure, salary is important, but sometimes, the prospect of learning is that great.</p>
<p>lol who am I kidding, I'm an Econ major, give me money</p>

<p>me too....</p>
<p>lol, I'm not skipping college. GoldShadow, it definitely is possible.</p>
<p>So, the consensus is the guys down at NYU Stern would take it into account?</p>
<p>But would they think you'd need to attend a college?</p>
<p>I'd think that they would give it to an applicant that really needs the experience.</p>
<p>no, they would want you there.....</p>
