-Three things really standout about Yale SOM. 1. Small size with incredible diversity of student interests. You are forced to interact with people who look at the world differently than you do which is an enriching experience. 2. Connection with Yale University. There is no limit on the number on courses you can take at other Yale schools. I've taken courses in Econ, Political Science, International Relations, Law, Divinity, and History. 3. The integrated core with raw cases. Focuses on the interconnections in business and society and the raw cases make you search for the data that's relevant.
