Hi Guys,
So it won't be a usual question below, but probably worth asking anyway.
I'm almost 30 years old male, Lithuanian/Russian living in Estonia, speaking 3 languages.
Studied Telecommunication technologies for 2,5 years (3.28/5 grade) in best Estonian tech univeristy,
but didn't graduate as I had to join family business (international distribution of electronics) at a critical time for the company.
For the last 8 years I've spent in the company (sales assistant -> COO), business got bigger,
we got many new customers/suppliers all around the world, participated in a number of international trade shows,
became one of the biggest EU companies in our field.
Money & business is good, but I understand that there is not much space left to grow for us,
and as I want to build something bigger I should find new opportunities.
So one of the possibilities I see for myself is to do MBA in EU BS - maybe I would find someone having same mindset, or having ideas
but with the lack of business experience, so I can contribute my skills/knowledge.
But as I've understood so far reading MBA subforums at GC, BS for most of the people is a step on a career path,
not a starting point to build own business. Did I understand it right? This is kind of a first question.
The 2nd question is - understanding that I'm not a typical candidate for BS (college dropout, no experience working in a huge corporation)
having GMAT700, what are my chances to get to the top-5 EU BS / which one should I consider
based on my main goal (networking with enterpreneurship-minded people)?
Thanks in advance!
