MBA Math & More: Concepts You Need in First Year Business School (Manhattan Prep)

MBA Math & More provides expert academic support you need for all the key material--especially the math--that you’ll see in your first year of business school. After all the hard work, you’ve finally gotten accepted to business school. But you’re worried about the “school” part of b-school--especially the math of Statistics, Finance, Accounting, and so on. Or maybe you’ve already started your program, and your head is spinning. Statistical distributions are brutal on their own, and they’re even harder when you’re also schmoozing recruiters and tackling all the other challenges of your MBA program. MBA Math & More will be your go-to academic guide throughout your first year of business school. Armed with top-shelf MBAs and years of GMAT teaching, the authors have drawn on their own experiences and those of hundreds of other MBA students to craft straightforward reviews of all the key concepts. The math is explained simply with plenty of easy-to-follow diagrams and concrete examples. At last, you’ll feel like you really get how the discount rate affects the price of a bond, along with dozens of other challenging ideas at the heart of b-school programs. The book even includes a glossary of need-to-know jargon, so you won't feel lost when classmates start slinging around acronyms.
