Usually the career offices at the schools subscribe to various online services and journals that provide research and info on industries and companies, so most people use the resources that the schools provide. The alumni database also is a great tool for setting up informational interviews for career research.

In the case of Kellogg, we have access to Vault, WetFeet, Hoovers, and S&P research, plus a variety of industry and trade journals.

I'm not sure this is the right place to post but I have been unable to find the right post for my question. I am also using this site through my phone and perhaps I do not have access to all the features as I would via pc.

I am interested in trading and have not decided on which MBA programs to apply. I understand I don't need an MBA to become a trader but I think in my case I think I do. I have a ba in sociology and a masters in urban planning. I've been working on the street since I was in high school but was not sure of my direction until, regretfully post masters degree. It was as if I had to endure the fire and brimstone to find myself.

I currently work at a Japanese bank managing their hardware and software assets. I have just started reviewing materials for the GMAT exam and I realize I need a goal to operate at my highest potential. In my quest in looking at MBA programs I've become a bit overwhelmed by the amount of material that each
program has to offer. Does anyone here know what schools are good for people interested in trading?

I was thinking of looking at the top schools ranked in finance. Is that a good idea? Thanks in advance for your patience. I realize I have long journey ahead...
