+MERCY GORETTY Yes, girl. Dream it, believe it, achieve it.
Go get it!
all the best .. don't give up on your dreams
MERCY GORETTY . Even if I have not done too well in my previous academics,can I still be accepted by Harvard for MBA if I do best in CFA CPA and GMAT and have 3 to 5 years of corporate experience?
MERCY GORETTY sorry but the day when you find out the way to harvard you will be in harvard ...
it doesn't matter which university you go to, as long as you enjoy what you are studying and put more time in it then you can get amazing job
I got accepted here ten days ago... Decisions
+TheYoungFactor Nice!!
What is there to decide? With Harvard on your resume you will never be out of a job unless you chose to. The average salary with a Harvard MBA is $100K+.
Congrats!
MrSupernova111 .I have a question related to admission to Harvard business schools MBA ,if you can answer please. Can I still study MBA ( finance) in Harvard Business schools, despite of not being able to do too well in my normal academic background, if I do much better in other professional courses ( like CMA ,CFA or ACCA ) ?
I have a question related to studying in Harvard Business schools MBA ( finance),if anyone can please feel free reply .Thank You.
What is the minimum percentage to be scored at GMAT?
I have another question in prior to which I would like to give brief information about my background.
Am studying ICWA ( Institute of cost and work accountancy) course which is one of the well recognized professional management accountancy course after CMA USA and CIMA UK as you know .
I have completed Bachelor degree in commerce from open university in india with 52% in aggregation after my class 10th( in which I scored 39% aggregation) ,I have worked in SAP for 2 years as software test engineer and am working at Accenture as accountant/ analyst since past 19 months.
Am 33 years old and likely to complete ICWA final level in next few years and also planning to go for Chartered institute of management accountancy after completion of ICWA final level.
Now what I would want to basically know is if I do really well in ICWA Final level exam and CIMA UK and GMAT ,will it be considered by Harvard business schools?
I am basically curious to know, if those students who have poorly performed in their normal academic courses,but did very well in professional courses ( like CIMA ,ACCA, CFA) and GMAT exam ,can they still study MBA finance at Harvard business school?.
Anirudh Hattangadi . You need a GMAT of 700+ and typically a GPA close to 4.0 to get into Harvard. I'm not familiar with the academic grading of other countries but if you can't get a 700+ in your GMAT then you need to be realistic about getting into Harvard.
There are plenty of US schools that will accept students with lower grades. Its my opinion that certifications and other educational achievements outside of traditional institutions like a 4 year university are not a significant factor at a school like Harvard. I think GMAT, GPA, and any required essay weight more than anything else in regards to admissions.
You should use Google to find out how other foreign students did to be admitted into Harvard.
even only by listening to how these people talk, i could get the impression of how smart they are.
I have watched this vid 10 years ago and I just remember watching it over and over. Used this vid as motivation as a student.
I will keep trying. Believe in yourself , believe in america. You can do it!
Well, I'm getting an MBA in Michigan but I came here for 8:12. I don't about any of you, but that is a BIG reasons of why I came here. My advice to you all, I like this school but the best thing is to start a company and then come back and get start in an MBA program. It gives a full working knowledge of how a business really works from beginning though execution of marketing a product properly and profit.
To people who were behind the concept of this video - THANK YOU. It gave me a perspective that I guess I was lacking before I saw this video. In short, it empowered me to answer my own questions about my career path and my education on the whole. Thanks.
All graduate business programs are pretty much the same. You read the same text books and academic papers and examine the same case studies. Every investments class is going to read Bodie-Kane-Marcus and every derivatives class is going to read Hull, guaranteed. The "case method" is not unique to HBS, pretty much every school does it (not to mention that it is not really all that effective). In fact, I had to purchase all of my case studies from the HBS publishing website.
An MBA in general is a joke degree and I have seen some real dummies come out of HBS with MBA's. Hell, I have met Harvard grads who had no clue how the Federal Reserve works. The hardest part about most high powered grad programs is getting in. Once you are in, it is almost impossible not to make it through.
Marketing and management classes are going to be little more than long winded explanations of what you already intuitively know while MIS classes won't go into enough depth to be of any use. Finance and accounting classes are the only classes were you will learn anything of importance, however, you are better off just dual majoring in these subjects as an undergrad than going to an MBA program as they are significantly watered down. Stay clear of any economics related classes (this includes the economic related portions of finance classes) as they will just fill your brain with useless knowledge that you will have to spend years unlearning as you realize how the world actually works.
Finally, fancy-pants graduate school is only worth it if you have parents who are rich enough to pay for it and you want to put off having to get a real job for a couple of years. If you have to go into debt in order to pay the absurd price tag for this scam-they-call-an-education then you might as well just become a bartender (I bet that the majority of HBS MBA grads couldn't even explain why tuition prices are so disgustingly high to begin with).
I agree with much of what you said regarding the curriculum. But an MBA from Harvard is absolutely worth the money. Just look at their average salary of graduates and that's all you need to know.
Other than that, yes, I am finance major with a minor in statistics and I can agree that the equations are all the same no matter what school you go to. I've been a salary manager for many years before returning to college and I can agree that most of the marketing and management course are long winded and almost useless to someone with even a couple of years worth of management experience.
I don't agree with the double finance/accounting majors because I can't think of any scenario where you graduate from school and use both fields in your line of work. Unless perhaps, you become a consultant straight out of college. But who the hell would hire a college graduate with no work experience as a consultant?
Math or English would be better options for a double major with finance/accounting.
+MrSupernova111 my highschool grades are shit, I'm latinamerican getting a Law degree done, and this really makes me feel like crap? What could I do?
Kiks' . Develop some confidence and don"t worry about what someone else thinks.
The information is the same no matter what school you go to so do your best and eventually you will succeed.
People think success is a straight line to be followed. It could not be more wrong. You will make mistakes- but will you get back up and try again?
PastaFactory the materials are similar but the environment is different. If you are surrounded with lazy people you very likely will be lazy and useless until the day you finally mature
It’s now 2k22, and utube recommended me this video. What a miracle!
someday someday ..i will be there
+UniversalMind
It may be easier than you think
+Strategic Plan Templates i hope so :)
I know I probably could never score high enough on a test to get into such a prestigious college I didn't even get out of High school I have been in the Realestate investing business for the past 20 years believe it or not I have done well I would mop floors, cut grass on the campus just to sit in HBS business school just to capture gems.
HIGHLIGHTS:
"if there are two words which best describe HBS they are.. 1.) case 2.) method and 3.) general 4.) management " -Jeremy Shinewald
2:22 "We" [start of new recording] "offer the" [start of new recording] "General" [start of new recording]..." - interview in crowded room ?
I don’t know why, but I think I’ll be HBS student
The value of a person in determining the amount of US bank account, it seems to me ..
I must say that Great Video I've ever seen about my ideal paradise - Harvard Business School.
I am among the first people receving this videos right from the moment it was produced.
Thank you MBAPodcaster.
Mr. Truyen Pham
Vietnam
Thank you
It is 80% about the network of people you have the privilege to know and 20% about the education.
You go to HBS because its a capital rich environment in attempt to buy an MBA with cash.Much of which is used to buy brand presents and connections.The program based on case study is seen to become more and more irrelevant across the world which needs a wider base of learning to achieve balanced successful outcomes.Although the HBS is hung up on long business numbers which hide under performance many of their competitors use the more relevant structured learning and real life research.The Global depression has spawned the view. What is relevant in an ever evolving market place is a yearly notching up of the requirement of diverse experience requirements of candidates.Many global companies now take the view that MBA's are best served by people who have second careers having gained 15-20 years experience in other professional rolls.Gone are the days where graduates go onto get an MBA without senior industry experience.
Thanks a lot MBAPod TV ... It was really helpful :)
Emily Minkow (Thumbnail Girl) @ 8:12
+Manu Anand pretty girl is Emily ..
She's soooo damn pretty!!!!!
Great point that a general management concentration does not prevent graduates from entering into a specialized field.
really impressed!they're so professional
Music: Porn
She's easy to find on Facebook... good luck! :)
Awesome video.. thank you so much for the information. I would consider my life Successful if I get chance to study in HBS. :)
Insightful video. Emily Minkow is pretty cute, too, lol.
awesome! i like the environment is created at the harvard university and momentum. it is a place similar to any university but the name runs the whole game. if you notice all these students they always referred to the name and fascinating people and good leaders came out of this university.
it is awesome that you have to pay so much money for your education in the us, so lucky that i live in germany!
We all know that engineers and scientist are the heart of human advancement and well being.
but it's expensive, I can't afford it
@MrTeaB studying business seems simple to many people, however it is one of the most interseting and complex studies that anyone can take
It's really helpful.
@CubishBalls very good point. That is what's lost on many people. Or they think the perfect school will guarantee them a successful career, which has been proven to have little correlation.
@illini012, I am an undergrad applicant.
Harvard undergrad acceptance rate: 6.9%
HBS- 12%
HBS looks at GMATs in lieu of the standard examinations for undergrad admissions.
Great, thank you for this!
@Addreanna yeah i know, but they still benefit from affirmative action
very unique to hbs, not just unique, but very unique.
Yep you can do Law and then MBA too. :)
It is awesome, no doubt about that, everything we hear, listen and see about Harvard is just Marvellous, but for international Students:
The Fees is the hardest concern to think of, its a massive : $84,000 + certain other expenses.
Harvard is one of the best Business School in the World, but 1 thing I still stick to, not because I can't get into it as of now due to financial constraints is that: Success doesn't come only from such Schools... We need to make up for ourself and work on our life!..
How are you measuring performers. I've been working in IT and it was always measured by who is considered "coolest" by the manager. The people the manager would prefer to hang out with on his/her spare time is going to make the grade regardless of skills. It would be great to hear that a manager has a tool that is better than "coolness" and how "enjoyable" someone is to be around. What about the person who works twice the hours as everyone else and makes or saves the company thousands?
I don't know about getting in Harvard business school, but I would get in her!!
THE FRENCH BUSINESS SCHOOLS HAVE A VERY GOOD LEVEL
HEC , INSEAD , LYON BUSINESS SCHOOL etc ...
A new book/ebook: "What Foreigners Need To Know About America From A To Z: How to understand crazy American culture, people, government, business, language and more.” Endorsed worldwide by ambassadors, educators, and editors, it paints a revealing picture of complex America to help those who will benefit from a better understanding, including international students. It also has chapters that identify the most common English grammar and speech problems foreigners have. Good luck to all!
There are actually only about 15 CEO's who never went to college. There are about 65 CEO's who graduated from Harvard alone, so that's not counting the CEO's from other top universities.
@sixstring1991 : It's good to receive your question. Not only HBS, I aspire to come to Harvard for many reasons. HBS I can confidently confirm that HBS MBA is the best one in the world for its true value and beyond. I cannot express all here. Unitil this time, I promise to myself that I will not die in satisfation if I have not come to Harvard. I want to go to Harvard to change the world!
Hope to receive your further feedback.
Thank you
It doesn't have to be Harvard. Other rankings put other schools on #1.
A good summary about the most important rankings is the Meta University Ranking.
I do agree that IITs lack some of those facilities.But,with the funds they receive that's the best they can do.And as far as research and stuff is concerned,you have got to know that 17% of the NASA scientists are IITians...and if you can search the names associated with some of the big companies in Silicon valley..u will again find IITians..for eg cofounder of JAVA was an IITian....Even though IITs lack all that research facilities..it doesnt seem to matter much,
Well..there is too much of difference with respect to the funds received by the IITs and Harward.IITs didn't make into that top 100 list because of the lack of infrastructure and other facilities.But,as far as quality of students is concerned,IITs are one of the best.Many people who fail to crack IIT are now in MIT.Silicon valley has got many IITians.This year Royals Royce and Mercedes Benz came for that placement stuff..so yes there is something special about an IIT.
Yes, in the averaged Meta Ranking Harvard makes #1. However, QS puts it #3 and THE #4.
Inspiring one......
*aspiring
@therealwinster Who's Jenna Haze? Notable Harvard Business School graduate, no doubt?
maybe. I say 30% chance. they want to see a higher SAT or ACT. Also after you meet the requirements academically, it really boils down to who you are as a person. essay, interview, etc.
"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we." George W. Bush Harvard Business
....amazing response, clearly that proves youre right....
She reminds me of jenna haze
agree agree

Me and HUNDREDS of other workers were let go over a year ago from the place that we'd helped build to garner 70% of the world market. We were loyal and believed in the company. Then in '08, the company got a new CEO and she was given a $6.4-million bonus though she did NOTHING to earn it! She turned around and had a "pay analysis" study done that supposedly showed that us grunts were being "way over paid"! I now have less than $5.00 in my account and no job. I HATE these arrogant greedy people!!
I also went to Harvard. It was a wednesday
answer the questions
wowa weewa shes genius man
I agree with you so much Jeremy, how are people there....looks enriching experience I like growth
Maria..Have you finished your MBA course ?...Bobi in Germany
@MBAPodTV
I love Mia! I wish I could get into Harvard Med School
@flanksteak2
Institutions do not produce, rather institutions show the way to be a criminal or useful person for the society. Its upto somebody which way they opt.
I know I probably could never score high enough on a test to get into such a prestigious college I didn't even get out of High school I have been in the Realestate investing business for the past 20 years believe it or not I have done well I would mop floors, cut grass on the campus just to sit in HBS business school to sit in just to capture gems such a college could offer.
Many of their business courses are free on youtube- yes look them up. Much of the information is the same you learn at any school. A finance or accounting equation is the same no matter what school you go to.
+MrSupernova111 thanks
2009 was my graduation class they have the best teachers best staff and the best ways of teaching things thanks for this video reminds me of old times!!
These are good tips.
It's not about a salary or any degree....it's more about Education.......!!
I fell in love with Emily Minkow.
she should be married
Yes, I'm talking about famous CEO's. BB King said that "most successful CEO's never went to college", so I was assuming that he was talking about the famous ones.
@TornTech i have not studied ...i have uniformly failed at every thing in life....i always discourage
other from studying as well or hard work of any
kind
HBS then 15 years on Wall Street, i can't say that i did not make money (if that's all you care about of course) but i have a feeling that Wall Street is a SOULLESS place. You do make a lot of money working for a Hedge Fund but the money did not make me happy. 50 percent of my coworkers are alcoholics, the other 20 percent are addicted to some other crap. I did the only thing a person like me could do - dropped everything and enrolled in a medical school. God bless and good luck
yeah, i was joking too. i don't think the gmat is a very big part of getting into hbs (beyond not getting below 700ish)
@italkrealsm Technically you can teach yourself any subject from the internet, however, that doesn't mean that you will learn them effectively. Regardless, to say you can't teach yourself accounting is ridiculous, since accounting is far easier to learn compared to most areas of finance.
not in locomotion feature, it would otherwise be completely motionless with substandard. Youre wrong.
The presenter is quite fit!!!
emily minkow is so cute
well this year the selection ratio got even lesser with 8000 students to be selected out of 13 lacs..that's 0.06%..
and that list looks good on paper but reality is a bit different,,
Yeah true but a few of them did. Warren Buffet did for one
I'm from MBA student In Anglia Ruskin university (the best school than HBS)
oh please, your just mad that you didnt get in
angola who?
******you're
If you go to such a great school, then why can't you form a proper sentence? "Im from MBA student..." Seriously? You didn't make it FOUR words before you fucked up!
*****
probably they are still evaluating his essay (For his unique english) which he wrote for GMAT.
wonderful
One day I'll go there. I don't know how but I can and I will.
Applications are a way of weeding out the bad and bringing the cream to the top.
the ROUEN BUSINESS SCHOOL has a very good level in france , and it 's cheaper than harvard
I'd love to go to HBS, but it seems like a lot of these people don't realise there's more to life than academic success and your career. I'm in business because I genuinely enjoy everything to do with it, but it's the sort of career where you can become consumed by the desire for money and status. If I ever let myself become too involved, I will leave the industry without a second thought. At the end of your life, this pursuit for HBS selection, money and power will seem futile.
The whole world economic crises has been caused by top people with a Harvard MBA! What does this tell us - banking, investment firms, top four global accounting firms, economists, etc.
12% is pretty good actually!
Where are you now? I want to know how has your mba helped you in your career
Do you have any insight on how the admissions committee views an applicant's score on the "Integrated Reasoning" section of the GMAT? The significance of that section is a mystery!
@dannbaman and what happens when " that amazing job "^goes stale like yesterdays
aftershave.......? when you get downsized ,etc etc...Best not to study , best not to work
hard , best to make a direct grab for money while working as little as possible
Mi hija irá a Harvard, lo decreto
What more one can expect in country of more than 1 billion population? These nos however means nothing compared to rejected people who applied to Harvard.
I'm more of the experimental type, you will need to change the game in finance, for those who belonged to the wall street crash would a seminar on unlearning things
@universita2010
probably because nowadays people more focusing on branding.
Good education should be for everyone. Classism.
I will be there in next 5 to 6 years baby
Great, hope to see you. Harvard in the snow: th-cam.com/video/lDru1f_LydQ/w-d-xo.html
This video offers step by step guide to apply in a business school, while it is so clumsily made up. Links, side info and conversation at the same time, pretty confusing. Now, my only concern is, how clear and easy to understand the step by step guide would be.
ROFL, what is that creaking sound in the beginning after she says "welcome to my home away from home"?
"welcome to my home away from home"
"blehhhhh"
@gibcyeah Just you told as it is..... and it shows how broad your mind and thinking.
Keep it up. Yours truly.
One important thing about life: Nothing is guaranteed.
Really very good ! Good luck
I understand law schools encourage Americorps candidates- is it similar with top Business Schools?
people in IIT are generally much more smarter... the top students in IIT undergrad are a shit ton of money... the top people in harvard do not get paid this.
