My MBA picks


Posted in Education, Posts by

Here are my programs at this point, in descending order of preference:

Harvard Business School

Stanford Graduate School of Business

Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania

There are many others that I admire, such as Chicago School of Business, Kellogg (Northwestern), Columbia School of Business, and Sloane (MIT), but I haven’t researched those to the degree that I feel comfortable ranking them. I expect to apply to 6 programs in the next 3-4 years, so I have some time to figure it out.

    I can’t believe University of Phoenix didn’t make your top three! ;-)

    For an entrepreneurial chap/family, why not consider Babson?
    …or, if you fancy a trip over the pond: Imperial College, HEC, or IESE ;o)
