undergrad history for Top B school

<p>Hello everyone, I have a question about admissions to a top business school. Let me know what you think.</p>

<p>If you transferred from a community college but did much better at a four year university, would you have a much harder chance of getting into a top business school? Setting aside all other variables for now and based purely on your undergraduate study records?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I'm going to change my major to History, and from what I know about Ibanking, you need to have good writing/verbal skills and history majors have that.</p>

<p>To get into Bschool it doesn't matter what your major is. I think they look at your University GPA instead of your community college GPA but I'm not sure.</p>

<p>What matters far more than your undergrad major is the kind of work experience you have. No B-school is going to say "Well, your work experience is great, your work recommendations are great, but you majored in the wrong subject, so we're not going to admit you". </p>

<p>As far as Ibanking is concerned, the most important attribute you can have is that you come from a consensus top school, because that's where the Ibanks tend to recruit. Put another way, a guy who majored in Music at Harvard has a better chance at getting into Ibanking than a guy who majored in finance at a no-name school. Fair or not fair, that's how the game is played.</p>
