OT: Question for Ross School of Business Grads...

Submitted by Michael From TC on

My gf is looking into Ross and was wondering if any of you have any pointers or would be willing to chat with her a little about what to expect / things to look out for.

Anything would be nice, I know that there are a few of you out there that post here regularly.

 

Let me know so I can get you in touch with her.

 

Thanks in advance.

My Ross BBA was 15 years ago so I'm sure things have changed since then.  Regardless, one enormous benefit is/was Career Services.  I felt much better prepared for interviews and that I had better access to good jobs than my friends with Economics degrees.  Getting a BBA might be a poor use of resources for some like someone mentioned above.  But if none of the other majors are appealing and an MBA might not be a priority down the road then a BBA could be the way to go.  I got an MBA from Berkeley and was better prepared for classes than the non-BBAs and could focus on other things because of that but did have to repeat a few things too.  Getting into the BBA program is more than just grades.  Leadership in clubs, etc is also important.
