(10 pts) After two decades of growing student enrollments and economic prosperity , business schools in the United States have started to face harder times. Only Harvard’s MBA School has shown a substantial increase in enrollments in recent years. Both Princeton and Stanford have seen decreases in their enrollments. Since 1990, the number of people receiving Masters in Business Administration (MBA) degrees, has dropped about 3 percent to 75,000, and the trend of lower enrollment rates is expected to continue. There are two factors causing this decrease in students seeking an MBA degree. The first one is that many graduates of four-year colleges are finding that an MBA degree does not guarantee a plush job on Wall Street or in other financial districts of major American cities . Many of the entry-level management jobs are for students graduating with Master of Arts degrees in English and the humanities as well as those holding MBA degrees. Students have asked the question, “ Is an MBA degree really what I need to be best prepared for getting a good job?” The second major factor has been the cutting of American payrolls and the lower number of entry-level jobs being offered. Business needs are changing , and MBA schools are struggling to meet the new demands. 64. What is the main focus of this passage? A. Jobs on Wall Street B. Types of graduate degrees C. Changes in enrollment for MBA schools D. How schools are changing to reflect the economy 65. The phrase “two decades” in the first paragraph refers to a period of……………. . A. 10 years B. 20 years C. 50 years D. 100 years 66. The word “prosperity” in the first paragraph could best be replaced by……………… . A. success B. surplus C. Nurturing D. Education 67.

Which of the following descriptions most likely applies to Wall Street? A. A centre for international affairs B. A major financial centre C. A shopping district D. A neighborhood in New York 71.

A. factors contributing to the decline in MBA students B. A current trend affecting the nation’s business schools C. The difference between Harvard, Princeton, and Stanford D.
