An MBA isn't like drinking from a fire hydrant. Its like being slammed against the back of the classroom by water cannons. When class ends, you discover you haven't drunk a drop because it just came at you too quickly. Even in a school that graduates nearly all of its students, failure still looms over all assignments. When the faculty says this is the time to try doing the stuff you aren't good at, they haven't got a clue.
Teams work because members do what they are already good at.
You don't put a team at risk trying to learn statistical analysis. One of the hallmarks of the Babson MBA program is its entrepreneurial spirit, by which I mean innovation, customer focus, opportunity recognition, and strategy formulation. What I find remarkable are the broad applications for this entrepreneurial spirit at companies of all sizes. The commitment demonstrated by the faculty far surpassed what I anticipated. I now have personal mentors on the faculty staff that provide guidance, impart wisdom, and create a powerful network.
