Guide Review - Best 282 Business Schools

There are a lot of different guides on the market for business school applicants. I you're looking for the best, you want The Princeton Review's Best 282 Business Schools.

The updated 2007 edition contains survey based profiles of the nation's top 282 business schools and stats on 172 programs accredited by The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). Each profile includes information about:
  • Academics
  • Admission Requirements
  • Application Deadlines
  • Acceptance Rate
  • Average GMAT Scores
  • Career Development/Placement Programs
  • Tuition Costs
  • Financial Aid Packages
  • Student/Faculty Ratios
  • Student Life and Environment
Best 282 Business Schools also includes 11 top ten ranking lists that cover topics like Toughest to Get Into (Harvard), Best Career Prospects (Stanford), and Greatest Opportunity for Women (Babson).

While the profile and ranking lists are excellent, what makes this book an all around reference and a must have for business school students are the six chapters packed with practical advice on everything from admissions to getting a job upon graduation.

I highly recommend Best 282 Business Schools to anyone who is thinking about entering a business school program.
