Reviews
"In the preface to her book What's Your MBA IQ? A Manager's Career Development Tool, Devi Vallabhaneni wishes she had had this book with her before she started her MBA at the Harvard Business School. Therein lies the inspiration for the book. MBA, she says, is like mastering a language and that one year shouldn't be used for just picking up the basics. This book, therefore, is a guide for students preparing for their MBA entrance exams." (Livemint.com, August 15, 2010)
"The MBA IQ is what defines your management knowledge in today's ever-changing business cilmate. This informative book, by the president and CEO of the Association of Professionals in Business Management, serves as a roadmap, facilitating advanced management education." (AM New York, November 2, 2009)
