The MBA Road (.pdf)

This elaborate graphic (a three-page pullout in the printed magazine) comprises a series of tables and mini-charts that follow the journey of a prospective MBA student. This figurative trip down the yellow brick road starts with the admissions process and ends with a degree -- and a new job. Included among the many statistical points are demographic breakdowns of the MBA student body, charactistics of major schools, how the job-interview process works, what kinds of jobs new MBAs land, how much they make, and lots more.

To preserve the exact look of this pullout graphic as it appears in the magazine, it has been saved in Adobe's Acrobat portable document file (.pdf) format. So it must be downloaded, then viewed with the Adobe Acrobat Reader (version 3.0 or higher is required).



To view a .pdf through your browser, just click the link below. If you have the Adobe Acrobat Reader software installed on your machine, it will launch automatically and display this file.

NOTE: If don't have version 3.0 OR HIGHER of Adobe's Acrobat Reader software installed on your machine, visit Adobe's Acrobat Web site at: http://www.adobe.com/prodindex/acrobat/readstep.html and follow the instructions to download the helper application for your computer system. Once you have installed the software, return to BW Online to complete your mission.
