I'll go ahead and say what you tiptoed around. You cannot recreate the experience of a top-tier MBA program online. You cannot drink online. You cannot travel the world online. You cannot play rugby online. There are hundreds of things that make B school what it is that you just cannot do online.

Funny post validating that ⅔ * HBS = BS.

I agree that HBS provides many of the experiences you described, but that argument can be made for college level education as well, no? one of the downsides of online education is that it lacks the social element that is at times just as important as the educational one.

I don't argue that HBS provides all of what you mentioned, but I do argue that many colleges provide the same.
