DID YOU GET INTO HARVARD BRO

Brady is no longer serious, I've suspected that for a while, but I think it's confirmed now...

Thx... got into HBS, ecstatic for the life-defining 2 years to come... like to thank everyone for their encouragement.

V E R I T A S

Im with Illini on this. Also, I suspect that b-school will not be the most exciting and/or formative period of their lives (sorry for them if it is) but congrats nonetheless.

How is being in school more fun than being retired after having a successful career hanging out with people who you actually care about instead of people you are trying to network with to get a job?

But what do I know?

Would this have anything to do with every word coming out of your mouth being an acronym?

I'll say it again. Your obsession with business school is very unhealthy and it suggests to me that you're unhappy with how your life is playing out. Look, I'm sure business school is great, and would involve a significant amount of socialising but the fact that you're placing such a huge emphasis on it is frankly weird. Let's say you're 30 OK. I'm a whizzkid 26 year old, and I think I'm the shit. Do you think I want to socialise with you when your overeagerness is going to border on pathetic? God no. Most of these kids that you'll want to hang out with are going to be colossal douches, and the others will be hard-working family people, looking to further themselves and not loiter drunk at some bar come 3am.

Drop this fascination with business school. If you hate your job, move the fuck on. I hated my job, know what I did? I quit. And I found another job within 3 weeks. In fact I had three offers at one time. Business school could change your life, correct, but the rate you're going it could turn out to be the most expensive mistake you'll ever make. Face facts bro, if Harvard was meant to be, you'd be there by now.

He's not venting though. He's making it worse for himself.

This has gotten out of hand

I don't know. He actually was pretty helpful in regards to answering questions about which programming languages to learn for S&T.

so as much as Brady combo-jerking off to HBS on this forum was / is overdone, everyone piling on and giving him shit for the same thing over and over again is pretty much doing the same. as others have said bradys given helpful advice to others on the site and at least is well connected enough to network with all these M7 kids. in the end he isnt hurting anyone at all-- and for the last couple of threads he hasnt really initiated any of the HBS fapchatting

ill agree he does get overtly excited at times about it and focuses a bit much but everyone piling on him is just as much as people making snarky troll comments on reddit

Slightly suspicious Brady is just elite trolling us with his HBS "obsession"

I go to Yale SOM. Not only do we abide by a grade non-disclosure system, we don't have grades. Last year, we had almost an 100% internship placement rate. For instance, in terms of investment banking, we had 40 out of 230 kids getting investment banking internships and 30 at bulge bracket banks. This was one of, if not the, highest placement ratios among all top business schools. From talking to my friends at other top schools, I definitely though recruiting was relatively easier at Yale given our small class size and outsized alumni contributions.

If he doesn;t post a reaction video of himself as he's opening his email/letter of rejection, I will kill Brady.

I was speaking to someone the other night and he mentioned that at several (most?) top business schools schools their is some sort of non-disclosure policy in regards to grades and recruiting. Can anyone confirm this?

Congratulations to everyone who made it.

could you post a short generic profile about yourself though. i.e.

ungrad school/gpa:
GMAT:
industry/work experience:
any extracurricular activities:

Would really appreciate it. Just wanna gauge my chances too.

Thanks and congrats again.

If I didn't know any better I'd say you were in high school...

Unless you like pounding Indian and Chinese girls, I would say the whole "fucking like rabbits" dream is dead on arrival. I've been to a bunch of Wharton parties and for every cute chick you have 5 haggard ones. Also, if you think type A B school chicks put out like Florida State sorority chicks you might be wrong.

Not saying B school isn't fun. My MSF was one of the best years of my life and I made a shit load of friends, but at the end of the day, school is school. You have to do well, interview, prep, etc. You are with kids who are highly driven and successful. They are not going to just roll up to interviews or classes wasted and say fuck it.

What I find funny is the fact that Brady could probably get himself a decent crew of finance guys who like to party right off this website, without two years of an MBA. Also, when I think of bad ass party MBA, I don't think of cold as balls Harvard. Go to Stanford dude and just crush Cali chicks. The weather will be nice year round and you have Cali girls to pick up. Harvard is amazing, but if you are going because you think you might be slaying Sullfolk University girls, I would reconsider.

No, nor would I. But I WOULD compare the undergrads. Either way, if you think Harvard UG's are dime pieces you must be smoking crack.

Well I suppose we had different experiences. I didn't say everyone was haggard, just saying B school isn't this cornucopia of tri delts to smash.

Look at Stanford. Much better scene IMO.

Thanks, Brady.

I'm gonna have to call B.S. on this hyped up social scene Brady is talking about. The partying/hook up scene is unrivaled? WTF...what about undergrad. I have a hard time believing that the kids at bschool are going to be partying more than they did in college.

Anyway-I have a friend at HBS and she has echoed an opinion I've heard multiple times-the social scene is more upper echelon and ritzy, with expensive ski trips and travel across the world (she has a hard time keeping up). Makes sense considering a lot of students have saved a decent amount of $, and I'm sure the international kids can tap into their parents funds. But I wouldn't be calling it "Animal House" by any means.

Anyway-we made a HBS 2+2 group for newly admitted students (class or 2016). Come join us if you haven't already-just pm me and I'll send you the link. Happy Holidays everyone !
