I came across this program online and noticed that 2008 would be it's first class year.

It's a join program between Tuft's international policy and business school. However, they offer MIB/JD program too. I know Tuft's well known in the international policy/ foreign affair area, but how would this MIB degree be preceived comparing to other MBA program?

Also, they have join program with Haas, HBS, and CEIBs, all of which are great top 10 schools. Would this put Tuft's MIB program in the same range on the rank?

Anyone heard of it? Anyone interested?

Having joint programmes is not the same as conferring a joint degree. If what you want is an international policy degree with a business focus, then the MIB sounds perfect. If what you want is to 'get out of audit', then the MBA is probably a much better (and probably pricier) choice.

I posted a reply to your question in the Ask Stacy Blackman forum. Also, bear in mind the MIB is no less expensive than an MBA - so be careful in evaluating the future benefits of a degree from Fletcher versus an MBA from a top 20 school.

"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."
