You come on here to ask a question, somone (I) gives you my interpretation and advice based on the fact that I've just gone through this, and immediately you say "I don't buy it." Then don't come here asking for advice then. I'm just throwing out what I've heard over the past year from consultants, current students and even alumni. These schools may have entreneurship programs, but to say that it's a primary focus or something they're really pushing students to get into is a bit of a leap. If you don't like my input, fine, but to come onto a forum, ask a question and then not be pleased with the responses so you refute them is a bit ridiculous.
You can lower your hackles -- I dont believe I was starting a fight.
I believe I was following the normal course of action in a conversation -- instead of swallowing what you say with a 'A-yuh, thank you sah', I thought I'd probe deeper -- I even stated that I dont understand the reasoning behind what you said.
If a school has a pride in their entrepreneurship program, I do question why your information states that 'admissions dont like it'. It would seem to me that if 'admissions dont like it', they wouldnt have it... I also never stated that any particular school was 'pushing' their entrepreneurship program -- I merely said a potential course of action for myself, would be to apply for an entrepreneurship focused MBA. The fact that a school prides itself on a particular program is no indication of them 'pushing' it on everyone.
"We've got these awesome facilities and an amazing entrepreneurship program! BUT -- dont bother applying, because WE DONT WANT YOU!"
I still dont buy it. Now whether or not you can handle the fact that I didnt fully accept your information as gospel, isnt my problem.
Again, I appreciate the information you've provided. I'd also appreciate if you un-wadded your panties and get over the fact that I'm still confused over the information you provided.
