    I have decided to make a violent plunge into yuppiedom.  I knew that 
    I had to outfit myself properly first, so now that I have my BMW on order, 
    Brooks Bros making my winter wardrobe, and Fauchon catering my Christmas 
    party, I only need an MBA from Harvard to make it all complete (oh yes; a
    very high paying, fast track position in a Fortune 100 company would
    be nice - I will be entertaining offers later this week).  

    All of which brings me to my question - Does anyone have any advice about
    gaining admission to the MBA programs at the Ivy League schools?  

    Thanks to all who reply.  
    
    To anyone who has valuable information and doesn't pass it on:  I'll see 
    you on the corporate ladder.  I'll find out who you are and I'll pass
    you so quickly your eyes will spin.  I'll render your mutual funds worth-
    less, and I'll see to it that your name is left off the guest list of
    every important social gathering in the country.  I'm taking no prisoners.


    ps:  Does anyone know the author of a book called something like "Choosing
	 the Elite"?  Someone told me it might be useful.
