  3. Top MBA Programs With Startup Resources to Spare - For some aspiring entrepreneurs, business school is like protective bubble wrap. Students get to leverage the experiences of faculty and alumni to test their ideas. Prize money doled out at business plan competitions allows for experimentation.

But do some schools provide more support than others when it comes to starting a business?

There is no one better qualified to answer these questions than the programme directors of business schools who observe the industry, its trends and its relative competitive advantages. Therefore the English national daily newspaper “The Independent” and Audencia Nantes School of Management in France asked the heads of 58 business schools in Europe, Asia, Africa and Latin America, but not the United States for their opinion. The data such collected challenges some of the accepted facts concerning the Master of Business Administration.
  5. B-Schools Send Rejections to Unlikely Group: Alumni - This admissions season, business school alumni are the ones facing rejection.

This standardized test measures skills and aptitude in math and English. It’s considered to be tough as nails and is feared by many. In order to succeed most students spend months preparing. But do not despair, there is help out there. Twitter for example provides the hopeful applicant with helpful accounts galore. Onlinemba.com has identified 30 sources.
  8. MBA Programs Find Their Niche - The MBA has traditionally been known as a general management degree, but that’s starting to change as students look to get an edge in a more competitive job market. Increasingly, students are pushing aside the bread-and-butter MBA degree in favor of one with a unique specialization, like aviation or football.
  9. As More Students Pay, EMBA Programs Adapt - Self-funded executive MBA students want career services comparable to those offered full-time MBAs. EMBA programs seek a middle ground
  10. Jitters Over New GMAT - Anxious business-school applicants have something to add to their to-do list: preparation for the new "integrated reasoning" section of the GMAT.
