As a part of the work the Veritas Prep has done putting together Business School Guides (free), they have used unique business program features to create an MBA Trivia Game.

It is a fun test with 20 questions - give it a try. You will learn a lot of interesting (possibly even useful) facts about various MBA programs. Link: http://gmatclub.com/tests/b03.
While you are there, you can also try our name that business school tests (photo-based test).

Now, the COOL part: Veritas Prep will give away 1 GMAT Prep course to one of the lucky MBA Trivia test takers.
  • To be considered for the drawing, you must reply in this thread and, if comfortable, indicate number of correct/incorrect answers
  • The winner will be able to select a Full, Virtual, Weekend, or Intensive Course (one)
  • We'll put your name into a virtual hat for the draw (one per person).
  • The winner will be announced in 1 week, Thursday February 11th.
  • You must reply/submit your entry by 1 PM Pacific time on Thursday Feb the 11th

I took it just for fun -- no need to include me in the drawing, I've already taken the test -- and scored 11/20. Bombed five of the last six questions. Eh!

I just blindly went by, I know nothing about any school, except for one question for which the answer was INSEAD. Still, I made a 7/20, as far as the other participants' scores go, pretty decent huh???

bb - these quizzes are all very embarrassing to me. I got 11/20, but I didn't know questions about schools I applied to :shock:

You don't need to count me either.

Hmmm.... Got 6/20 correct but most of them were guesses. Need to go through Veritas' annual reports to get tho know these schools better. Looking forward to the draw :)

14 out of 20! I had a hand in writing /editing all of the Annual Reports, and I don't think I'd do much better without having them with me!

Yep, all members who reply in this thread will be counted, unless they specifically request not to be.
