Customer ReviewsRating: 5 out of 5 Save time and money Why waste many hours searching dead end websites when you can get the best of the best from this excellent book. Rating: 4 out of 5 Bears Guide is a Good Start My review is based on last year's guide. Bear's Guide to the Best MBA Programs by DL was my guidepost during my selection process. The first five chapters are the best, especially the sections on vital factors in selecting a program and the section on accreditation. This information made me a much better consumer. I probably annoyed more than one admissions counselor with my questions! The detailed information on each school is only fair -- make sure you go to the schools web site instead. John Bear really cares about this topic and often posts to DL forums, so in my opinion you can trust him. He even responded to a personal email with some good advice. After exhaustive analysis, and marking up Bear's Guide from cover to cover, I choose a particular European MBA DL program. One year later, I changed to a MBA program in the US but not due to bad advice from Bear. Read the section on accreditation and choose carefully. Rating: 5 out of 5 Once again, the Bears come through This book very clearly spells out the options of earning a business degree via distance learning. Accreditation (typically one of the most confusing issues facing students) is thoroughly explained, and there are no unaccredited schools listed.My only criticism is that some schools I think are good options (such as Baker College) are left out. However, the title is "Best MBA's", so obviously some have to be left out. If you're in the market for a non-traditional business degree, buy this book.
