This week, we discuss the importance of class size  and how it can influence &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;interactions within the business school &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;community. Next week: Flexibility of Curricula.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When I conduct our school selection presentations, I frequently start  by asking, &amp;ldquo;Who is interested in Harvard Business School (HBS)?&amp;rdquo;  Inevitably, most of the hands in the room rise. I then ask, &amp;ldquo;Can anyone  tell me how many students HBS has in each student class?&amp;rdquo; Often, I get  no response at all. So many candidates are interested in HBS&amp;mdash;and there  is nothing wrong with that; it is indeed a great school&amp;mdash;but very few  have truly investigated their target schools to determine what elements  of those programs might significantly affect their professional and  personal lives.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Just so you know, HBS is the largest of the top international  business schools, with approximately 900 places in each class.  Meanwhile, Dartmouth-Tuck and Berkeley-Haas are on the smaller side,  each with 240 students per class. But can class size affect your  experience? Absolutely. &lt;strong&gt;READ MORE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
