Hi all,

Just wondering about this questions from quite a few days 'How an MBA degree helps a person who, in future, wants to be an entrepreneur?'
This has been a good topic for debate for many days with no particular yes or no answer. When you tend to pose this question in any entrepreneurial communities, the most likely answer you can expect to see is 'NO'. But then, there are quite a few entrepreneurs who told that their MBA degree has been helpful in shaping their careers.

Hmm, lets see how the people of a typical GMAT community would react. Post your views guys.
