Business Week B School Forum

by Hovey25 » Thu Jan 15, 2009 1:44 pm
I would like to commend the moderators and all of the users of BTG. I was on the BW B School forum and an applicant to Georgetown, Notre Dame and Vanderbilt asked people's opinion of the schools, most specifically the finance programs.

Some users provided excellent reviews/feedback for this person.

Then I started to get angry...Other users proceeded to post things which essentially said those schools were garbage. For instance apparently the only good thing about ND is that it has a large alumni network. Nevermind it is consistently ranked in the top 20-25. This was just one example, I found many others. Gotta love a bunch of pompous a-holes who know everything and then give their uneducated opinion of things they truly know nothing about.

So thanks again to all who post objective, well thought out reviews and suggestions for your fellow MBA aspirants...

Rant over...

Hi, first I'd like to thank you for the wonderful compliments you have given us here at BTG - it means a lot to us to know our members see this community as being truly helpful, insight, and willing.

I peruse the BW forums myself and I have noticed a different vibe from the members there.
