For all of you overachievers out there
Now, there's very little chance I would have taken advantage of this in the year leading up to B-School, but had I taken the time to look over core concept material, I'd have been in much better shape coming in. Turns out many of the core textbooks in B-school have online resources. Back in undergrad we had some online addenda to the coursework, but they weren't very useful... thankfully, many publishers now realize the value of putting content online.
Two of my core books provide open access to these resources; Accounting and Stats. Oddly, you don't need a login or anything... just follow the link. If you're the overachieving type, you could start looking over the material now to prepare for year one.
These are tremendous free resources. I can guarantee if you spend even 2 hours per week looking over the sites before coming to school, you'll find your first few core classes are much easier.
---If anyone has other free online resources, email me at Isaac (dot) rogers (dot) 2008 (at) owen.vanderbilt.edu and i'll post them...
