Many of us weren't. You claimed MBAs are exclusively for rich kids. I provided data to refute that baseless claim. The point on how many foreigners there were is just a freebie.

I don't know about Harvard MBA students, I didn't go there. But you can go ahead and google each school's class profile. Maybe that info is out there.

That was not data, that was a guess about your class.

It wasn't a guess. It is real world data based on the class profile that, as I mentioned, is publicly available. I just don't want to dox myself.

your wording indicates it is a guess, giving a specific percentage wouldn't have doxed you

The plural of anecdote is not data.

That phrase stopped being witty ages ago. These days it's mostly a low effort comment.

I don't need a plurality of data to counter his claim that MBA's are "exclusively" for rich smart kids.
