Greetings BTG community,

I read an interesting case study from a Wharton 2002 grad who has claimed that: 'If you can't get into a top-five MBA program, don't even bother'.

Here's the link to the case study: https://qz.com/42233/if-you-cant-get-int ... en-bother/

This is especially intriguing given the context of the Wall Street Journal's article questioning the value of an MBA.

I would love to hear what the BTG community thinks about this issue.

Danke.

Sam

my opinion... this guy is bitter, arrogant, and sites false data.
