Hello all,

There is a lot of information here on US Business schools and some information on European b-schools. But i couldn't find any information on Asian Business schools.

According to Business week, Asian schools are seeking a brand of their own. The growth in Asia's economy is definitely a major phenomenon in the global business world and in the past few years more and more people trying to penetrate into this region of the world. I'm starting this thread with this aspect in mind and would like to hear from other people who are also aspiring to get into the top Asian Business schools.

Here is an interesting section from business week:

http://www.businessweek.com/globalbiz/asia/special_reports/20090508asia_best_business_schools.htm?chan=bschools_bschool+index+page_international+b-schools


If you are planning to pursue an MBA in the Asia i would appreciate if you could share your motivation, target school and the reason for selecting the school. This would be extremely helpful for applicants like me.

Thanks
HK
