Fifteen schools purchased subscriptions for their incoming full-time (10), part-time (4), and/or executive (9) MBA program students, up from 12 in 2008. Notably, six schools purchased MBA Math subscriptions for the first time in 2009 for their Executive MBA students, building greater awareness away from the full-time program format where the course originated. Numerous other schools recommend or require that their students purchase MBA Math subscriptions.

More Problem Solving: Reflecting MBA Math's active problem solving focus, students submitted solutions to 590K exercises in 2009, bringing the cumulative total over four years to 1.4M.

Greater Student Proficiency: Demonstrating proficiency gains that position students for success when first-year classes start, across 60K quizzes submitted in 2009, the average pre-quiz score of 57% rises to an average post-quiz score of 91%.

Admitted Students Joined by Applicants and Enrolled Students: Among individual subscription purchases, applicants represent 28%, admitted students 57%, and enrolled students 15%. Applicants often submit MBA Math transcripts to bolster their admissions package, sometimes at the request of admissions officers seeking demonstrated proficiency with MBA quant skill basics.

Live Teaching Shapes Material: Live multi-day courses, at Dartmouth (Tuck) and Cornell (Johnson), coupled with a Forté Foundation workshop, continue to shape the course material.
