Price of an MBA....it's priceless indeed

I was just going through the MasterCard advertisement and thought of this...though this is kind of old now but still thought of writing this:

GMAT - 250$
Manhattan GMAT classes - 1400$ (though i didn't take that :) )
Application to each school - 200$
Travel cost for interview - 350$

One admit from the dream school - PRICELESS!!

After this,

Tuition fees - 80000$ ( and i believe MasterCard can't pay this)...


But...
After MBA, dreams you convert into reality.....PRICELESS!!

Bought some books related to management

I was thinking to buy some books related to management for quite sometime now, finally today i went to the store and bought 3 books.

1) Snapshots from Hell - The Making of an MBA
- Peter Robinson
2) The McKinsey Way
3) The Mckinsey Mind
- By Ethan Raisel

"Snapshots from Hell", i am sure most of you people would have read this one. I started this book and read the first 3 chapters. Its an interesting book about the life of a guy who gets admitted into Stanford GSB and what he goes through when he reaches there. But the guy in this books seems to hate Mathematics especially Calculus, which i definitely love :) .

The other 2 books, i haven't started and i basically bought them to get more insight into Management Consulting. I hope they turn out to be good books. Anybody of you people have read these??

Also i wanted to read some of the good biographies or autobiographies, ofcourse related to the field of management.
Please suggest me some good books related the field of management. I basically want to get more insight and also motivation by reading some of the books. I would also like to read some books on finance.

Waiting to get some good suggestions from every one of you out there :)
