Open Question: Graduate School Questions for a Finance Major?
I am currently a junior at Eastern Michigan University in Finance. I currently hold a 3.6 GPA. I am currently completing a finance internship at a small local financial services firm as well. My plan is to work somewhere in the finance industry after I graduate in 2010, I will probably look for work in Chicago since I have quite a few connections there.

I am a bit worried about getting my MBA down the line though. I have some questions about whats possible with my credentials as far as schools go. If I graduate from Eastern Michigan University with a 3.5-3.7, work somewhere in the field (at a credible company) for 2 years and score average on the GMAT, what kind of choices for graduate schools will I have available? University of Chicago out of reach? If so what schools in the area are realistically going to be available to me?

My brother-in-law went to Albion College (private school in michigan), graduated with 3.7, worked in insurance at Sun Life Financial for 8 years, scored a bit above average on GMAT and got into University of Chicago.

Resolved Question: Is “pro-life” just a smokescreen for whats really going on here?
NO NAMECALLING PLEASE. THANK YOU!

Theory:The “pro-life” stance is just a wedge issue to get some people to vote Republican no matter what. This has been created because some of the biggest causes OF the GOP are in fact pro-death.

It’s how a lot of politics works. Following the Rovian principle, they say the opposite of what they are and what their intent is to fool what should in fact be their biggest detractors.

-Cigarettes kill about 660,000 Americans a year, yet the tobacco lobby is a major campaign contributor to the GOP. Silence from the anti-choice crowd.

-Over 20,000 Americans each year die from an adequate lack of health insure. This problem is virtually nonexistent in Canada and Western Europe, where voter satisfaction is consistently higher than in the more conservative US.And filmmaker and single-payer advocate Michael Moore was lambasted for mentioning this statistic. Why? Oh yeah, the private insurance industry is a major contributor to the Republican Party.

Because, if you had single-payer insurance, almost no one would die from complications due to a lack of coverage, but the Insurance industry would lose a bundle, and that means less campaign $$$ for the GOP.

I’ve tried to find where in the bible that it is pro-gun,pro-rich and pro-free market, but all I can find is this “love they neighbor” stuff that rules the judgemental far Right right out.Hmmm…

-Conservatives say they are against “big government”, yet many in fact advocate theocracy (America was founded on escaping theocracy). They want a government that
- tells its own people what surgeries they can have,
- who they can marry
- what substances they can and cannot take.
- kills its own people for killing
- spies on its own people
- tortures its detainees
- demonizes intellectual dissent

Sounds more like Islamic Iran than America.
Mike Ma: Could you elaborate a little, if you can?
soldier4… I stopped reading your rant as soon as you revealed yourself as nothing but just another hatefilled namecaller. Typical christian hypocrite.
Jersey Guy,-yes OF COURSE legalizing drugs will stop 80% of all violence. Been saying that for years. But I dont think you understood all of the question though.

Brandon- So you are saying more big govt. theocracy is the answer? It hasnt wored yet. “killing innocent babies” I can name 10 televangelists who dishonestly frame it that way just to rake in the dough.
lawgirl-Yes,exactly. They do nothing to actually reduce the # of abortions, so its all scare tatics.
grayquil: Never said abortion was good,only saying banning it wont stop it and it’s critics are offering no real alternatives nor are the adopting more.
And maybe if you are so smart you could skip the insults.
Mark D: So you are saying namecalling is the main part of your twisting my words around? Typical.
