5.0 out of 5 stars
Great MBA program, or CLEP, prep,
By Michael T. Cox (Durham, NC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Management (Barron's Business Review) (Paperback)
Your Business Review series is excellent. While this series was not designed for CLEPs or any of the other standardized examinations universities use to test accomplished areas of knowledge, I have found the entire series crucial for just that. Particularly as I am entering an MBA program. These volumes were precisely what I needed, and I have been telling everyone with even slight interest in these topics about them. Specifically, I am referring to the following books of the series (by title): Accounting, Business Statistics, Economics, Finance, Management, and Marketing.

This review is from: Management (Barron's Business Review Series) (Paperback)
This book provides a complete knowledge in most simplistic language and explains the management subject in brief. It is very easy for a working executive to understand and practice the various concepts . A must for distance education students.
