Students Say
Not surprisingly, Harvard Business School manages to “draw talented and diverse students…from all over the world.” As one thankful MBA further explains, “HBS attracts the best students and the admissions committee does an incredible job constructing a class that is carefully balanced to provide diversity across many dimensions, including nationality, industry experience, functional experience and ethnicity.” Of course, these classmates share many traits as well. The vast majority are “ambitious,” “intellectual” and “engaging.” More importantly, they are “friendly, supportive” and highly concerned about the “social impact” of their work. Though perhaps this Harvard MBA says it best: “Countless times, I have found myself describing a peer as, ‘the most interesting woman/man I have ever met!’”
