MBA Journals

If you want to know what business school is like, who better to ask than MBA students?

Since 1998, we've asked more than 75 MBA students—with six new recruits for the 2006-2007 school year—to write accounts of their B-school experiences and beyond. We've chosen students from a variety of backgrounds, who have different career objectives, and from a range of schools. We抮e also having a student applicant write a journal from the viewpoint of someone navigating the selection process.

Ironically, after two years of wading through thought-provoking readings and endless hours of stimulating classroom discussion, I am more acutely aware than ever of how much I have left to learn.   Barry Kellogg The strength of Kellogg's MBA program is that it's the most engaging, team-oriented environment I've been in since college   Marty London Taking advantage of LBS's European location, I decided to do my shadowing in Barcelona with an executive in the restaurant industry		Amy IMD   Heather Texas-Austin   Malcolm Carnegie Mellon   Melanie Stanford   Nina Michigan   Samantha Georgetown
