In Reply To: Hello folks, I was searching for a summer course for this year and I??m considering a course at Tuck School of Business, named Business Bridge Program. Has anybody here heard about it? Does it worth the high fee to participate? Would it increase someone??s chances to get an entry-level job in a M/B/B consulting company (considering my undr. course is engineering)? Thanks for the opinions.
Message: BBO is an online program used for incoming BAs and probably even APDs(not sure). Its interesting and worthwhile, but I do not see why you would pay for the course. It may be of some help in interviews but its not information not available elsewhere! So if you are planning to use it for interview prep, its not worth the money. It definitely would not increase your chance of getting a job, for that matter, taking some short course is never going to get you a job! So stick to traditional sources of interview preperation.
