What do they teach you in business school?

<p>Do they teach you about entrepreneurship? How to invest in the stock market? I'm still deciding if I want to major in Biology or business. I'm not that good at math but I'm great in science. The reason I want to major in business is because I want to get rich. I'm a Junior In high school by the way</p>

<p>They don’t teach you to invest in the stock market for the most part. They do teach you the basic skills you need to run most businesses. At most business schools you learn some accounting, finance, marketing, operations management, business law, information systems, basic economics, etc. Most business schools at least nod at business ethics by requiring a course in it. And there are courses about entrepreneurship at a lot of them (but if you don’t understand the basics of business, like how to handle money and distribution of product, etc., then all the entrepreneur discussion in the world won’t help you build a successful company).</p>

<p>Business school fundamentally gives you a leg up on others in the business world who don’t have a broad view of the business areas that make a company work. You know the lingo, have some experience through your studies with the topic, and can come up to speed more quickly than someone who didn’t study business. You have a better shot at getting internships, which in turn gives you a better shot at a good job in business when you graduate. </p>

<p>However, it sure won’t hurt you to talk some liberal arts classes, too. The ability to analyze well and communicate with others is essential. You might want to know that a lot of top business programs require you to take calculus.</p>
