I am about 4 weeks away from traveling to Madrid and starting my MBA. I have started talking to a few of my future classmates through Facebook and it has been great. Im looking forward to meeting this amazing group of people shortly.
I am currently reading a book called "Ahead of the curve - two years at Harvard Business School". Its written by an ex-journalist who is describing his time at Harvard. The professional backgrounds of the people I have met so far seem quite similar to the MBA class at Harvard. Probably the biggest difference being that there are less Investment Bankers at IE and a few more people with a general management background. Of course the class at IE is much more diverse than the class at HBS. The book is a great read, I would recommend it to anyone who is considering an MBA or is about to start an MBA - its very insightful.
Alright then, I'll sign off for now - back to the Spanish lessons.
Adios.
