1.0 out of 5 stars The title is very misleading., December 9, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Peterson's 1999 MBA Distance Learning Programs: The Hottest New Yar to Earn a Graduate Business Degree (Peterson's MBA Distance Learning Programs) (Paperback)

I was very disappointed with this book. Peterson's has some excellent books on distance education. This is not one of them.

Over half of the schools included do not even offer an MBA program. They offer other degrees in management (e.g., M.S.) or similar areas but NOT MBA's.

Second problem - most of the schools are not distance at all. Many are restricted to one to five geographic sites around a local area.

Third problem - many of the schools only offer a few courses at this point - not full degree programs at all.

I was excited about the arrival of this book but... it was a major disappointment. I suggest looking elsewhere. Thorson's Guide has around 30 real distance MBA's (check on Amazon).

The title is so encouraging that I eagerly wait for its arrival so that I can read it.
