Look to a more appropriate forum. Regardless of that, you need to come across as literate and well spoken if you wish to succeed. If you are willing to put in as much effort as you claim, then you should be telling us what business schools are cited as being tops in their fields, as well as which one is more suited to the specific sub-field in which you plan to operate your grand endeavor.Rather than just throwing out a vague troll, ask some specifics, or offer up more information so people can offer pertinent opinions.[/rant]Justin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weid14 0 #21 March 25, 2002 I myslef thought it to be a pretty good troll, especially with his response later on... BTW, FWIW to teh original poster-- the current privately owned, biggest company is probably Koch Industries, but you'll never know cause they don't release that info. The bigger public companies would require some sort of hostile take over that requires another company of equal or bigger size to capitalize it. You've got a pretty long road ahead of you... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kallend 2,027 #24 March 25, 2002 What's your SAT verbal score? That's the most reliable indicator of college success unless you want Engineering (not available at Harvard), when the best indicator is SAT math.You'll need at least 1400 SAT composite to get into either school, anyway, or any other ivy league school.
