Hi BTGites,

I want to know the best college for MBA in Media and Entertainment and the required GMAT score to get into it. I have a work exp of 4 yrs but unfortunately in the field of software technology.

Though its late but now I want to do something which is my area of interest, where I can slog for 14hrs/15hrs happily and I guess that a good GMAT score will help me to chase my dream.

I have 3 queries:

1. Best college for this program.
2. GMAT score required.
3. Is relevant work exp mandatory.

Thanks in Advance
Gaurav

Check out Anderson at UCLA--you will be competing against others with strong background in media, but if your credentials are strong enough, you could make a case for adding a different dimension with your background. Good luck.

My friend just started at NYU Stern this year... the reason he chose it was for Media & Entertainment.

I would look into Columbia as well

My goal is to make MBA applicants take onus over their process.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
