A UCLA professor was suspended for not providing special treatment to black students in the light of George Floyd's death. The professor is suing the University of California Los Angeles for more than $19 million over the well-publicized incident that garnered national notoriety.
Gordon Klein – a lecturer of accounting at the Anderson School of Management – made headlines in June 2020 when he refused to give preferential treatment to black students.
As Blaze News previously reported, Klein was asked by a student if black students would be given special accommodations because of George Floyd's death and the subsequent Black Lives Matter protests.
"The student requested a no-harm and shortened final exam, and extended deadlines for final assignments and projects in consideration of black students' well-being in light of nationwide protests against police brutality," the Daily Bruin reported.
Klein responded by writing:
Thanks for your suggestion in your email below that I give black students special treatment, given the tragedy in Minnesota. Do you know the names of the classmates that are black? How can I identify them since we've been having online classes only? Are there any students that may be of mixed parentage, such as half black-half Asian? What do you suggest I do with respect to them? A full concession or just half?
Klein asked the student if "a white student" from Minneapolis "might be possibly even more devastated" by the death of George Floyd.
Klein then quoted Martin Luther King Jr., and asked, "Remember that MLK famously said that people should not be evaluated based on the 'color of their skin.' Do you think that your request would run afoul of MLK's admonition?"
A student took a screenshot of the email conversation, and it quickly circulated online.
UCLA students claimed Klein's email was "backhandedly racist" and that it undermined the Black Lives Matter movement.
The same day as Klein wrote the email, a Change.org petition was launched, and it demanded Klein be "terminated for his extremely insensitive, dismissive, and woefully racist response to his students’ request for empathy and compassion during a time of civil unrest."
The petition — with more than 21,000 signatures — read, "His behavior is not reflective of the equity, respect, and justice that UCLA stands for as an institution."
Two days later, Anderson School Dean Antonio Bernardo announced that Klein was suspended and an investigation was initiated into the "troubling conduct."
"Providing a safe, respectful and equitable environment in which students can effectively learn is fundamental to UCLA’s mission," Bernardo declared. "We share common principles across the university of integrity, excellence, accountability, respect, and service. Conduct that demonstrates a disregard for our core principles, including an abuse of power, is not acceptable."
"I deeply regret the increased pain and anger that our community has experienced at this very difficult time," Bernardo added. "We must and will hold each other to higher standards."
Klein was reinstated less than a month after the incident.
However, Klein alleges that the public backlash had caused irreparable damage.
Klein derives significant income from his expert witness practice.
The College Fix reported, "He has testified, for example, in several high-profile court cases, including Michael Jackson’s wrongful death, Apple’s acquisition of Dr. Dre’s Beats headphones, and the valuation of General Motors’ assets in bankruptcy."
Klein’s attorney – Steve Goldberg – told the College Fix this week, "He was one of the top damages experts in the country who was historically bringing in well over $1 million dollars a year and trending upwards when it happened."
"That practice went to ashes right after he was suspended," said Goldberg, a member of the Markun, Zusman & Compton law firm.
Klein, who continues to teach as a full-time lecturer at UCLA, is suing the university for "well over $19 million in damages."
Klein's lawsuit is scheduled to go to trial on March 4 at the Santa Monica Courthouse.
Klein, who joined the UCLA Anderson School of Management in 1981, first filed a lawsuit against the school in September 2021.
UCLA did not respond to repeated requests for comment by The College Fix.

The n.c.a.a. under scrutiny
The team did take Anderson, who recorded double-doubles in two of the three games.Īnderson’s eligibility is expected to be confirmed soon, according to a person close to the situation who is not authorized to speak on behalf of the university or the player. The NCAA does not discuss ongoing investigations.Īs a precaution, UCLA did not take Muhammad on a recent trip to play exhibition games in China. That company is headed by well-known UCLA alumnus and benefactor Casey Wasserman.Īnderson and Foucher could not be reached for comment and Wasserman declined comment. The Anderson investigation involves a reported relationship with Thad Foucher, an agent who works with Arn Tellem at the Wasserman Media Group. Muhammad has said he expects to be cleared. Muhammad’s family has said both men were long-time friends, and thus permitted under NCAA rules to give financial aid. Officials are also looking at Ken Kavanagh, a New York financial planner who partially funded the summer team Muhammad played for in his hometown of Las Vegas. Investigators want to know about money he allegedly received from Benjamin Lincoln, the brother of an assistant at his high school, to help pay for unofficial visits to Duke and North Carolina. UCLA issued a statement this week, saying it was working “closely with the to establish the facts and circumstances for a fair and thorough review.”Īs the crown jewel of the incoming class, Muhammad has faced the greatest scrutiny. But suspicion has become the norm in an era of travel team coaches and agents, prompting increased NCAA screening of high-profile recruits. “It’s unfortunate and unfair to our players … these are all really good kids.”Īt this point, neither Howland nor his staff appear to be under investigation. “I’m sorry people feel that way,” Coach Ben Howland said. The ongoing investigation into their eligibility has added fuel to Internet speculation that UCLA must have cheated to attract such talented athletes. With practice set to begin early next month, Muhammad and Anderson are still awaiting official clearance. While giving the team the look of a championship contender, it has also drawn scrutiny from the NCAA. Suffering through too many losses and too many negative headlines, the Bruins hoped to turn things around with a blue-chip recruiting class.īut the much-hyped addition of Shabazz Muhammad, Kyle Anderson, Tony Parker and Jordan Adams has proved to be a double-edged sword. The UCLA basketball program needed some good news after last season.

Blaine Gets Into College
“I’m not going to be nothing.” Blaine said to himself as he sat in the corner booth at a restaurant in downtown Westerville waiting for his parents and grandmother to meet him. It wasn’t like he wanted to meet them or anything, but they knew it would be time for him to get his acceptance letters back from colleges and therefore they wanted to meet to ‘discuss his options.’ Which probably meant that his grandmother was forcing them to financially support him—something that he absolutely detested, but how else would he… well… survive? It wasn’t like he could as Kurt’s parents to support him or anything. He was pretty sure Kurt’s dad didn’t even like like him yet.
Blaine looked down at the three acceptance letters he had brought with him—Duke, UC Santa Barbara, and UCLA. Those were the three schools that wanted to recruit him for soccer and they would therefore be giving him a scholarship if he accepted. He got into two more colleges—OSU and UK, but he didn’t plan to tell his parents that. At least not yet.
The best three soccer schools wanted him. It was everything his father had wanted from him since he turned seven and started playing soccer. Wanted from was more accurate than for because Blaine was pretty sure his dad just wanted in on the money he could possibly make if he went professional.
I still wish you’d let me meet them. You’ve met Dad and Carole. How is that fair? :)
Blaine looked down at the text and shook his head, smiling. Kurt knew things weren’t… normal in Blaine’s home life. They didn’t go into a whole lot of details because Blaine wasn’t comfortable enough to tell too much yet, but he knew that Kurt was really just trying to cheer him up. Kurt probably knew more than he let on. After all, he would always be stressed before and after visits. That always resulted in Kurt trying to cheer him up or distract him—something he appreciated more than Kurt would ever be able to understand. At least he had Kurt to complain to about it now.
Maybe next time you can come. It’ll be a party, Blaine typed back. He knew Kurt would never meet his dad but he wasn’t going to come out and say that. Kurt would surely take it the wrong way.
I don’t think we have the same idea of what a party is, Blaine. But if it ends in more drunk cuddling, I might not argue too much.
“It is incredibly rude to have your phone out on the table in a restaurant, Blaine. What do they teach you at Dalton?”
Blaine slid his phone into his pocket as his grandmother took a seat across from him. “Sorry, grandmother.”
“Your parents will be here shortly. Your father got a little held up at work.” She said, looking around the restaurant. “Did they not even bring you water?”
“I didn’t want anything to drink until I ordered.” Blaine mumbled.
“Talk clearly. You’re not some public school child.”
“I went to public school until ninth grade.”
“Don’t backtalk me. What has gotten into you? A boy gets to the age where he can apply to college and all of a sudden he thinks he can sass his grandmother?”
“Surely Blaine isn’t sassing anybody.”
Blaine stiffened as his father sat directly across from him. He’d really hoped his mother would sit by him… until he remembered otherwise he’d be looking directly at his father.
“How’s that boy?” His mother asked, sliding into the booth next to him and pulling a hair off of his blazer. “Doesn’t he look so adorable in his blazer, Barbra?”
Blaine shrugged his shoulder in an attempt to make her stop. “It’s fine, mom.”
“Clearly your etiquette classes did not pay off.” His grandmother remarked as the waiter came up and took their order.
“A lot of things didn’t.” His father muttered, looking Blaine in the eyes.
“How is that boy?” His mother repeated and Blaine resisted the urge to cringe.
“What boy?” Blaine asked distractedly, looking around the restaurant confused.
“I heard him on the other side of the phone the other day, Blaine. Don’t treat me like I’m dumb. You have a friend that is a boy.” His mother said slowly.
“I have many friends that are boys.” Blaine said. “I go to an all boys school.”
“Honestly. We can handle it. We handled you coming out, didn’t we?” Blaine’s grandmother asked.
Oh, yeah. You sure did.
“What’s his name?”
Blaine looked out the window, praying that the waiter would come with their drinks a little faster. He needed something to distract himself since he clearly wasn’t going to be able to have his phone out. His phone was the only thing that made lunches with his mother bearable and now he didn’t even have that to save him.
“Your mother asked you a question, Blaine.” His father said, voice low.
“Christopher.” Blaine lied. “His name is Christopher.”
“I’ve always thought that was a hideous name.” Blaine’s mother said, scrunching her nose up. “Christopher?”
“What ethnicity is he?” His grandmother asked.
“Does it matter?” Blaine asked before he could stop himself.
“Of course it matters.” His father said through clenched teeth.
“He’s Hispanic. Christopher is his middle name. His first name is Jose.”
His grandmother dropped her purse on the floor. “Honestly, Blaine?”
Blaine shrugged one shoulder, looking up and taking his drink from the waiter when she arrived.
“I still say we should have gone to the country club.” Blaine’s mother sighed.
“It would have been too far of a drive for Blaine. Gas isn’t cheap these days and I’m the one that has to pay his gas because Dalton won’t let their damn students have jobs.” Blaine’s father scoffed. “If I had it my way, he’d be working and paying off part of his tuition bill.”
There goes them paying for tuition for OSU or UK, Blaine thought to himself. He felt a tingle of sadness and guilt. There goes being within driving distance of Kurt.
“Are you really dating a Mexican?” His grandmother asked.
“I think they prefer to be called Hispanic, mother.”
“I’m actually dating a leprechaun.” Blaine shrugged.
“I’m asking you a serious question.” His father growled.
“I’m not dating anybody.” Blaine blurted, sitting up much straighter. “The guy on the phone was one of the Warblers.”
He momentarily closed his eyes. Please don’t ask me anything else…
“You sure do talk to someone on the phone a lot after school. Who is it?”
“My therapist.”
All three of them fell silent after that, not speaking until several minutes after their food arrived. They’d never asked how therapy was going. Not in public to avoid being overheard and not in private because they didn’t care.
“So,” His grandmother finally said. “When are you going to let us in on the big news?”
Now if it’ll get me out of here, Blaine thought. But he didn’t say that. Instead¸ he said, “Whenever.”
“Now we just want you to know that everything will be covered. I will cover food, gas, and school expenses while you’re up there and your parents will pay for a nice apartment and will completely furnish it and pay for all of your bills.” His grandmother prattled. “If no scholarship is involved, your parents have agreed to pay that as well.”
“If?” Blaine prompted. It wasn’t going to be that easy. No way. It wasn’t how his family worked.
“If you keep your private life private.” His father cut in. “I don’t want a bunch of pictures of you shacking up with boys ending up in the wrong hands. Your grandmother and I have careers to keep up and if you go wild, we’re going to cut you off entirely.”
“So can I act gay or can I just not let you find out?” Blaine asked, voice sweet.
Why did I just say that?
He really was back talking too much. Clearly Kurt was rubbing off on him.
“Are you wanting an argument or are you just stupid?” His father asked, glaring at him.
Blaine pushed the envelope toward his father, mainly just to shut him up.
His dad set his plate aside and opened Duke’s first—his father’s first choice, as it had been since he was 9 and his coach said he showed “great promise.”
“Accepted.” His father said out loud about five seconds later.
Blaine sat very still, waiting. What would happen?
“Accepted on a full scholarship!” His grandmother cried, looking over her son’s shoulder. “Oh, Blaine! I knew you could do it! He’s always practiced so hard!”
Blaine’s eyebrow shot up. He hadn’t expected a reaction from her. The again, money. What else would get a reaction from this woman?
“Do you see that, Mark?”
“Good. Maybe he can go to Duke, get his act together, find a nice girl, have a good career, and pretend to be normal.” His father said, tossing the letter onto the table.
Blaine stood, yanking the letter up and grabbing the others as well before anyone could grab them. “I don’t know why I came.”
“Not so fast. We’re not done discussing this. You need financial support.” His grandmother said, pointing to the seat. “Sit.”
Blaine stared at the three of them, weighing his options. Money for college and life or no money for college and life. Of course, of course, freaking money was going to win out. He hated money.
“Financial support will be given to you, as I explained, but there are some… conditions. Now I know that you wouldn’t want to do anything to jeopardize my chances of winning in office.” His grandmother said as he slowly and regretfully took a seat. “We want to make sure proper precautions are taken to… to ensure my slot.”
Blaine resisted the urge to take a roll his eyes.
“You are not to post pictures of you and other boys acting… homosexual online.” His father interrupted. “You are not to post anything about your boyfriend online. You are not to do anything that would raise flags that the grandson of Barbra Anderson is gay. Am I clear?”
Blaine looked down at his phone, uploading a picture of he and Kurt as his Facebook display picture. His profile was completely unsearchable so it wasn’t that big of a deal, but it still gave him the lightest bit of satisfaction. “Crystal clear, father. Is that it?”
“Don’t go getting drunk and acting like a fool. You have a name to uphold. If you get arrested, I will not be bailing you out again.”
“The longer I’m in jail, the more likely people are to make a connection.” Blaine commented. “That would be pretty unfortunate, wouldn’t it?”
His father stood, walked around the table, and grabbed his arm roughly. “I’m not playing, Blaine Wyatt Anderson. Just because you are almost 18 does not give you the right to act how you choose.”
“Actually when I’m 18, it does give me the right. By law.” Blaine said, eyes on his father’s hand. Five… four… three…
“Let go of him, Mark. This is ridiculous.” His grandmother hissed. “Someone could see.”
“Someone could see? That’s more important than what he did?” Blaine scoffed, standing when his father let go of him. “I’m leaving.”
“Here’s some lunch money, dear.” His mother said, shoving four one hundred dollar bills into his hand.
“Lunch money or hush money? Forget it.” Blaine pocketed the money, grabbed his jacket, and stormed out of the restaurant.
Are you free yet?
Blaine looked at his text, feeling his face light up in a smile at Kurt’s words. Just broke away. Am I driving to Lima or are we meeting half way?
You’ve driven all the way the last five times. I’m at Dalton in the senior commons with your friends. Hurry back. Wes is getting restless and that always results in awkward sexuality questions.
I am so sorry. I’ll be ten minutes tops.
:)
At least Blaine had Kurt and his friends.

“Increase in the number of people employed coupled with rising demand of specialized courses has driven the Executive Education market in Singapore”
The report Titled “Singapore Executive Education Market Outlook to 2023 - By Type of Program (EMBA and MDP), By Funding of the Program MDPs (Company Sponsored and Self Funded) and EMBA (Self Funded, Partial Funding and Company Sponsored), By Duration MDP (1-7 days, 7-14 days and more than 14 days) and EMBA (up to 12 Months, 12-24 Months and More than 24 Months)” by Ken Research suggested that the Executive Education market in Singapore has been growing due rapid transformation in education system, increase in the number of people employed and evident salary hike after completion of these courses. The market is expected to register a positive CAGR of 1.1% in terms of revenue during the forecast period 2018-2023E.
Rise in Joint EMBA programs and Contracts with Companies: Singapore has witnessed surge in the demand for executive education in order to explore the potential opportunities. It has been observed that the many B-schools and universities have started offering executive learning programs for professional development and career building in alliance in the country. For instance: UCLA Anderson and National University of Singapore, Tsinghua University and INSEAD (TIEMBA). In addition to this, it has helped the B-schools in broadening their student base and in creating brand value which will further lead to enhance alumni network which is a major attraction for students. On top of it, partnership with these companies would aid in structuring the course specifically catering to the industry vertical required.
Lifelong Learning Programs: The current trend in Executive MBA is that they offer the alumni's with the opportunity to study lifelong in the institutes such as in NUS where the alumni can go back to the college and participate in new classes or they can even take new classes as a fresher with no additional cost. This facility is available to the alumni’s upto 20 years from the time of their enrolment into the program. This would help the college to build a strong alumni network and will further increase the demand for executive education in the country.
Company Sponsored Programmes: In Singapore, it has been observed that majority of the enrollments in the MDP courses are company sponsored in the year 2018. On the other hand, number of enrollments in EMBA which are company sponsored accounted a mere share in the year 2018 owing to these programs are of longer duration and are costly therefore they are least funded by the companies whereas MDP programmes are generally short term courses due to which companies generally provide full sponsorship to their employees to learn new and highly demanded courses which will help the association in the longer run.

15 CFB recruits to know about from a talented L.A. camp
The Under Armour All-America regional camp tour rolled into L.A. on March 3, and many of the state’s best players showed up and showed out.
LOS ANGELES — The Under Armour All-America camp tour rolled into SoCal on the first Sunday in March, bringing with it around 100 prospects who held Power 5 offers by late February.
Two players earned invites to the All-America Game.
The Under Armour All-America Game has been around for more than a decade, bringing some of the best players in the nation together for a week in Orlando in the winter, culminating in a game televised on ESPN. Players earn invites to the game via camps.
One from this camp was Chad Johnson, the son of the NFL namesake receiver. Johnson has transferred from Venice to Cathedral High. The four-star receiver checks in at 6’2, 180, and did a good job on the day of getting open and making tough catches. He is solid in a commitment to Arizona State, but does see more big things coming in his recruitment.
Johnson expects to have “30-plus offers” by the spring.
“I am solid in my commitment, but a lot of schools are showing me love,” he said, including his dad’s alma mater, Oregon State.
“Purdue, Ohio State, and a bunch of schools are on me,” he added.
But there are two schools from which he’d still strongly like an offer: Texas and Ohio State.
“If I get those, recruiting will get hectic,” he said.
Visits are on deck to Oregon, Oregon State, Purdue, and Ohio State.
The other new invite is also a receiver in LV Bunkley-Shelton, who plays for Junipero Serra and has 21 offers. He is one of the smoothest route runners in the nation. As for top schools, Bunkley-Shelton said that he has a “top 21, because all of my schools are even.”
He plans to visit Ohio State and Oklahoma at some point.
Meet some four four- and five-stars who justified their ratings.
Kourt Williams, a defensive back/linebacker from St. John Bosco, was quite good in coverage. He has seen his rating improve a lot in recent weeks, and it should continue to rise.
“Most colleges see me growing into a linebacker, but I can cover receivers, so they see me as a versatile player,” Williams said. “But I just want to go where I can play early.”
He has double-digit offers, and several schools are recruiting him hard.
“Ohio State, Notre Dame, and Oregon are showing me the most love,” he said.
But if he had to pick two hats to be on his commitment ceremony table, he says they would be Ohio State and UCLA.
Williams said UCLA has “really picked up their recruitment of me.”
Johnny Wilson, a star receiver from Calabassas, was also strong. He is massive at 6’6, 220, with good wheels for his size. Physically, he’s just too much for many opposing defensive backs to handle. Wilson has offers from most of the sport’s elite programs.
Cornerback Darion Green-Warren is a top player for Santa Ana Mater Dei and committed to Oklahoma.
“I’m solid to Oklahoma right now, but I am trying to go see everything, and see what every program has to offer,” Green-Warren said. “But I love Oklahoma, and I am solid, it’s just making sure I am making the right decision.”
One offer that would be big?
“Clemson would be a huge offer, coming off a national championship. They’ve put a lot of DBs into the league, too.”
Defensive back prospect Jacobe Covington, from Scottsdale (Ariz.) Saguaro, has the build to be a very good DB at the next level. He might grow into a safety, but I was impressed with his coverage. Oklahoma and several Pac-12 schools have offered.
And meet five players who looked better than their early rankings and offers might suggest.
Joey Hobert, a receiver from San Juan Hills Capistrano, was excellent on the day. He is unrated as of this writing, but does hold offers from BYU and San Jose State. He consistently got open. His father, Billy Joe Hobert, won a national championship with Washington in 1991.
Offensive lineman Drake Metcalf was one of the best linemen in attendance. Metcalf took some reps outside, but his body type likely profiles as a center going forward. He is yet another elite prospect from St. John Bosco.
Linebacker Caleb McCullough has no star rating as of this writing, but the Oxnard Pacifica star was plenty productive on Sunday, just as he has been in high school. He also has an ideal linebacker build at 6’2, 215. Arizona and Nebraska have offered.
Kobe Pepe, a 6’1, 270-pound edge player from St. John Bosco, took home the event’s “big man challenge” honor.
I was intrigued by T.J. Griffin, a very competitive defensive back who could end up being a nickel safety in college. Griffin repeatedly took reps against the camps’ best and held his own. I could not find a recruit profile for him and am not sure if he has any offers.
And meet some young guns whom serious recruitniks might want to know.
These are all class of 2021 prospects.
Beaux Collins, an elite receiver from St. John Bosco, had an excellent day. He ran by defenders and jumped over them. In the process, he earned an invite to the Future 50, an elite event held every January by Under Armour for the top juniors in the nation.
Collins said Ohio State has been “showing the most love,” with head coach Ryan Day and receivers coach Brian Hartline building a relationship with him. OSU has offered a scholarship.
Michigan has yet to offer, but Collins thinks the Wolverines might be next to do so among schools on his radar. He plans to visit Michigan, Ohio State, Notre Dame, and Penn State during his spring break, he said.
Local school UCLA is also hard after Collins. He visited in February and talked to the Bruins’ receivers coach, Jimmie Dougherty.
“They take their time, but they’re focusing on guys they feel they will actually get,” Collins said. “It’s more attention.”
Linebacker Raesjon Davis, of Mater Dei, also earned an invite to the Future 50.
Tiaoalii Savea, an offensive tackle from Las Vegas Desert Pines, is a name to know. He looks to be probably 6’5, 250 at this point, but has advanced body control and balance for his age. Florida, Oregon, and Tennessee have offered.
Mavin Anderson, a receiver from Mission Viejo, has real upside. He was too fast for opposing defensive backs on several occasions Sunday.

STUDY MBA IN USA WITHOUT IELTS OR GMAT FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS
Hers is how and when to get an MBA Without GMAT & IELTS For Foreign Students in the USA. This guide displays the schools providing MBA in the US without GMAT / IELTS and you can make your option dependent on colleges.
The method of applying for research at international universities requires a particular mix of aptitude tests for each applicant. Also, the scores from these exams enable universities to gauge their prospective students ‘ abilities. The GMAT and IELTS scores have been considered part of the paperwork needed to be submitted along with other application content for future entry to an MBA program for the longest time. Although the GMAT is intended to evaluate management aptitude, the IELTS seeks to measure and quantify English language abilities to equate non-native speakers’ language abilities with the ability rates predicted from native speakers. However, the evolving patterns involve an uptick of universities able to accept to MBA programs without the criteria of GMAT and IELTS.
Foreign students seeking to obtain an MBA degree in the U.S. are expected to request GMAT scores as part of the qualification process, but there are colleges in the U.S. providing MBA programs to foreign students without GMAT, so you can find all the helpful information in this report.
WHAT IS GMAT?
The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) is a computer-based adaptive exam developed to assess those theoretical, drafting, mathematical, verbal
and reading competencies in written English for use in admits to a graduate management program such as the MBA.
The schools which require the GMAT MBA exam use the Test Score to determine admission as students can differentiate themselves throughout the entry phase and are the most commonly used measure of academic progress in the MBA and other graduate programs.
Many MBA programs, though, do not follow this principle, and although some reject the usage of GMAT score as a criterion for recognizing excellent candidates, other programs may not use it at all. The article aims to highlight you to these schools, and they are equally exceptional academic institutions that are internationally recognized.
REQUIREMENTS FOR MBA IN THE USA WITHOUT GMAT
The Master’s Degree in Business Administration (MBA) is globally recognized in corporate and management expertise.
At the beginning of the 20th century, the MBA degree was created in the United States as modern and science management was being pursued.
MBA encompasses several fields of corporate administration such as industrial law, company relations, economics, logistics management, supply-chain management, accounting, applied information, human resources, professional ethics.
In American business schools the admission requirements for an MBA without GMAT are;
A four-year degree from an acknowledged institution
Total job experience of two or three years (varies in certain schools)
Curriculum vitae
Private Declaration
Two professional referral letters
Highly rated colleges such as the UCLA Anderson School of Management, the New York University Stern Business School, the Kellogg School of Management, and others, also provide acceptance without GMAT ratings, so that the applicant represents a strong overall academic profile. In countries including Australia, Canada, Germany, and increasingly in parts of the United States, among others, a graduate degree can be obtained without IELTS / TOEFL scores being needed. Universities in these countries offer a range of options, ranging from a paper showing that the research format in the candidate’s former organization was English, to an opportunity to take a university course to brush up on the language skills.
BELOW, WE HAVE LISTED SEVERAL SCHOOLS FOR AN MBA IN THE UNITED STATES WITHOUT GMAT & IELTS FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS:
University of Phoenix
Sawyer Business School, Suffolk University

High school hoop star's 92-point game ignites debate online and IRL
Ball drives on Los Osos.
Image: Louis Lopez/CSM/REX/Shutterstock
LaMelo Ball, a lanky high school sophomore from Southern California, scored 92 points in a high school basketball game. That is an absolutely astounding, astonishing, incredible and damn-near inconceivable amount of points for anyone to score in a basketball game much less coming from a high school sophomore.
But if only this story were quite that simple.
SEE ALSO: The most dad-ass dad sneaker of all time just became even more dad
Ball is a 6-foot-2, 160-pound point guard for Chino Hills High School who’s ranked 16th nationally in class by ESPN.com. He took 61 shots in Tuesday’s 32-minute game against Los Osos High and made 37 of them. He shot a scintillating 30-39 from two-point range and a not-that-good 7-22 from three-point range, according to a box score posted online after the game.
@MELOD1P drops 92!! (That’s a Ball Family record) in the @basketball_chhs win over Lososos 146-120 final @latsondheimer @SGVNSports pic.twitter.com/yr6kre1g4k
Tommy Kiss (@TomKiss64) February 8, 2017
Big, big numbers. But Los Osos coach Dave Smith sounded pissed after the game, and not just because his team got lit up for 92 points by one player in a 146-123 loss.
We’ll get to the controversy in just a sec, though. First, here are the highlights.
Smith called Ball’s performance a “joke” after the game, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Chino Hills players intentionally fouled Los Osos players to stop the clock when Los Osos was on offense and thus allowed Ball more time to add to his point total, Smith said, according to the Times. A closer look at the video also shows Ball frequently committing the major basketball party foul of cherrypicking that is, not bothering to get back on defense in order to catch a long pass off the rebound from a teammate for an easy layup.
“Thats wrong,” Smith said per the Times. “It goes against everything CIF [California Interscholastic Federation] stands for. The Ball boys are very talented and great players, but its embarrassing to high school athletics. Ive been coaching for 35 years, and weve turned high school athletics into individualism. Its amazing to watch a kid score that many points. But its tough to say thats what CIF athletics is about.”
Ball already had a high profile in the basketball world before his controversial 92-point outing. His older brother, LiAngelo, a senior at Chino Hills, scored 72 points in a game earlier this season. His oldest brother, Lonzo, is a freshman phenom at UCLA who’s projected to be among the top five picks in this June’s NBA Draft. Both LiAngelo and LaMelo have committed to play for UCLA in college as well.
Well I mean that’s one way to bounce back after a loss… I see you lil bro 92
Lonzo Ball (@ZO2_) February 8, 2017
Moreover, highlights of Chino Hills games are frequently posted to YouTube by BallIsLife and other mixtape outlets. Those videos have already been viewed millions upon millions of times this season. The upshot is Chino Hills is currently America’s most high-profile high school basketball team by far.
But Smith wasn’t the only one who found Ball’s 92 points or more accurately, the way he accumulated them suspect. Backlash also came online.
This edit, for example, shows what we’ll generously call a lax attitude toward defense or even running back down court to pretend to play defense.
This is so lame haha pic.twitter.com/iEcrl1opDJ
NBA All Access (@nballaccess) February 8, 2017
Others critiqued as well.
92pts is impressive but..
7/22 from 3 is not good
Most his 2s were open lay-ups
Didn’t play D
NO good HS team lets opponent score 80+pts
Drew Hanlen (@DrewHanlen) February 8, 2017
NBA player Glenn Robinson III rated the performance three crying emoji.

Glenn Robinson III (@GRIII) February 8, 2017
Many called the way in which Ball racked up his points a “joke.” Even pornstar-turned-sports-columnist Mia Khalifa weighed in.
Am I the only one not impressed by Lamelo Ball’s 92 point game? His talent level already surpasses everyone on the court, it’s almost unfair
Mia Khalifa (@miakhaIiifa) February 8, 2017
But maybe there’s a different explanation for all this?
Ball told ESPN after the game that his outburst was in honor of Chino Hills classmate Alexis Anderson, who’s currently hospitalized. For that reason, according to ESPN, teammates rallied to help him score more and more points. (A GoFundMe page set up to help Anderson’s family with medical costs has so far raised $28,000 toward a goal of $100,000 in four days. About 80 of 281 total donations had come after Ball’s game, a GoFundMe rep told Mashable.)
92 points #love4lexi
SwaggyMelo (@MELOD1P) February 8, 2017
Backlash to Ball’s 92-point-game then spawned a counter-backlash (“He’s a kid!” “It’s 92 points!” “Stop hating!”) because the internet always eats its own tail, but we’ll leave it at that for now.
Here’s the upshot.
Anyway you slice it, 92 points in a high school game is damn impressive. Would the feat have been more impressive if it hadn’t come in such a gimmicky way? Of course. But LaMelo Ball still has two years of high school basketball left, then college hoops, then who-knows-what after that so rest assured this isn’t the last time he’ll become a topic of internet debate.

NBA mock draft 2017: The Lakers finally zero in on Lonzo Ball at No. 2
Happy draft day, everyone. Here is our final mock before the 2017 NBA Draft.
The 2017 NBA Draft is finally here. After 12 months of hype, the players making up one of the most exciting draft classes in recent memory are about to learn where they will begin their pro careers.
There will be no drama at the top when the Philadelphia 76ers get on the clock. With the trade up to No. 1, the Sixers have zeroed in on Markelle Fultz to finally get the franchise out of the lottery and into the playoffs. The Lakers could throw a wrench into this mock draft with a surprise pick at No. 2, but it would be shocking if they actually passed on Lonzo Ball.
The rest of the top 10 falls nicely into place after that. Boston and Phoenix both need big wings with Jayson Tatum and Josh Jackson sitting right there. The whole NBA knows the Kings want De’Aaron Fox. What do the Knicks do at No. 8? It feels like they could go in any direction.
This is our final mock for the 2017 draft. Happy draft day, everyone.
1 Philadelphia 76ers - Markelle Fultz, G, Washington
Fultz is the total package for a guard. He has ideal size, a reliable shooting stroke from three-point range and a unique ability to create offense for himself and others out of the pick-and-roll. The trade up to No. 1 was a grand slam for Philly. If Joel Embiid can stay healthy and Ben Simmons reaches his potential, the 76ers suddenly have the brightest young trio in the NBA.
Here’s our first feature on Fultz as a high school player, from Dec. 8, 2015: Markelle Fultz went from JV to one of the best prep point guards in the country in 2 years
2. Los Angeles Lakers - Lonzo Ball, PG, UCLA
The Lakers’ decision to trade D’Angelo Russell clears the way for Lonzo Ball to be the second pick in the draft. Ball possesses a gifted basketball mind to go along with deep shooting range and great size for a lead guard at 6’6. A year ago, UCLA was one of the most disappointing programs in the country before Ball transformed them into the greatest show in the sport. Don’t bet against him having a similar impact on the Lakers eventually.
Our first Ball feature from the 2016 McDonald’s All-American Game: Basketball has never seen a player like superstar recruit Lonzo Ball
3. Boston Celtics - Jayson Tatum, SF, Duke
Tatum offers classic go-to scoring ability on the wing. He has great size (6’8), advanced footwork and an array of moves that are developed beyond his years. It’s fair to wonder if Tatum is a bit of a ball stopper who struggles to make his teammates better, but the fit with the Celtics should help mitigate that problem. Brad Stevens has a way of getting his teams to play together. Now he’s going to have an incredible offensive talent on the wing to push his group to the next level.
Our first Tatum feature, from July 9, 2015: 5-star recruit Jayson Tatum has the basketball world in the palm of his hand
4. Phoenix Suns - Josh Jackson, SF, Kansas
Jackson seemed likely to go the 76ers at No. 3 before the trade with the Celtics. Now he should be there for Phoenix at No. 4, where he looks like a perfect fit with the Suns’ young roster. Jackson is simply the type of player who helps you win: he’s a great athlete, ruthless competitor and unselfish when the ball is in his hands. If the young front court of Marquese Chriss and Dragan Bender can come into its own, the Suns will suddenly have a great collection of diverse talent.
Our first Jackson feature, from Oct. 6, 2015: Josh Jackson is the blue-chip recruit who could be a college superstar right now
5. Sacramento Kings - De’Aaron Fox, PG, Kentucky
Fox turned in the most memorable individual performance of the college basketball season when he dominated Lonzo Ball in the Sweet 16. He’s known for his blinding speed, his ability to get to the rim and his tenacity on both ends. The Kings need a point guard, but even more than that they need a new face of the franchise. Fox checks both boxes.
6. Orlando Magic - Jonathan Isaac, F, Florida State
What makes Isaac unique is his ability to impact the game without demanding the ball be in his hands. He is a phenomenal defensive talent as a versatile forward who can slide his feet with guards and protect the rim like a big man. His offensive skill set is raw, but he has a nice face-up jumper (35 percent from three) and will bring value as a cutter.
7. Minnesota Timberwolves - Lauri Markkanen, PF, Arizona
Markkanen is an elite shooter at 7-feet tall with an ultra quick release. That should help open up driving lanes for Andrew Wiggins, Zach LaVine and even Karl-Anthony Towns. Think of him as a bigger Ryan Anderson. He’ll need to add strength and improve defensively.
8. New York Knicks - Frank Ntilikina, PG, France
If the draft breaks the way I think it’s going to, the Knicks have the most interesting decision of the top-10. Malik Monk, Dennis Smith Jr. and Frank Ntilikina are all great prospects in their own right. You can argue Knicks can’t go wrong with whoever they chose — though surely they will try. I’m putting Ntilikina here because he feels like the best fit for Phil Jackson’s beloved Triangle offense. He’s not going to break you down off the dribble like Smith or catch fire as often as Monk, but he’s the longest and most intriguing defensive prospect of the bunch. He reminds me of a young George Hill.
9. Dallas Mavericks - Dennis Smith Jr., PG, NC State
Smith is a mega-athlete at point guard who is at his best attacking the basket. Throw him in a spread pick-and-roll offense surrounded by Nerlens Noel, Dirk Nowitzki and Harrison Barnes, and he should be immediately successful.
10. Sacramento Kings - Malik Monk, SG, Kentucky
Someone is going to fall to No. 10. If it’s Monk, he’ll be set for a reunion with Fox to keep the Lexington-to-Sacramento pipeline alive. Monk isn’t a perfect fit with a similar player in Buddy Hield already on the roster, but he’s too talented to pass up at this point. We’re like a year away from John Calipari accepting a godfather offer to become the new emperor of the Kings.
Our first Monk feature, from July 21, 2015: 5-star recruit Malik Monk wants to be more than a mixtape legend
11. Charlotte Hornets - Luke Kennard, G, Duke
The Hornets have Dwight Howard now. It's been nearly a decade since the peak of the late 2000s Magic teams that starred Howard with shooters all around him, but why not attempt to run it all back? Luke Kennard went to Duke nearby and might be the best shooting prospect in the draft.
12. Detroit Pistons - Donovan Mitchell, G, Louisville
Reggie Jackson’s future in Detroit is uncertain at best. Can Mitchell be the Pistons’ point guard of the future? It’s possible. While he typically played off the ball at Louisville, Mitchell has the length and athleticism to overwhelm opposing guards defensively. He isn’t a natural ball handler or shooter, but he did hit 37 percent of his threes as a sophomore. More than anything, he feels like a Stan Van Gundy type of player.
13. Denver Nuggets - OG Anunoby, F, Indiana
The Nuggets have a pair of budding offensive talents in Nikola Jokic (already a star) and Jamal Murray (looked good as a rookie). Now they need a strong defensive presence to tie the lineup together. Anunoby can be exactly that. He’s a strong, long-armed defender who should be a great fit for Denver at the four once he recovers the ACL he tore in January.
14. Miami Heat - John Collins, PF, Wake Forest
Collins led all DI college basketball players in PER this season thanks to efficient inside scoring and incredible rebounding. There are questions about his shooting range and lateral quickness, but it’s hard to ignore that type of production.
15. Portland Trail Blazers - Zach Collins, C, Gonzaga
Collins could go as high as No. 10 in this draft, but there’s usually one player who falls out of the lottery every year. There’s a lot to like about his game: a combination of shot blocking and perimeter offensive skill, namely. By the end of the season, he might have been the best player on Gonzaga’s first ever Final Four team.
16. Chicago Bulls - Justin Jackson, SF, North Carolina
If Jackson is available, recent history would suggest he’ll be the Bulls’ pick at No. 16. Chicago’s front office has long favored veteran college players from winning programs who improved over time. In that sense, Jackson is similar to the Bulls’ first rounder from last year, former Michigan State senior Denzel Valentine. If Jackson’s not around, the Bulls could go in any direction. Texas’ Jarrett Allen or Creighton’s Justin Patton seem like strong possibilities.
17. Milwaukee Bucks - D.J. Wilson, F, Michigan
Wilson enters this draft looking like a boom-or-bust selection. He wasn’t all that productive at Michigan until the end of his junior season, but there’s a lot to like about his physical tools. Namely: at 6’10, 240 lbs. with a 7’3 wingspan, Wilson offers a rare combination of shooting and rim protection. If everything clicks in the NBA, he could be a major sleeper in this draft.
18. Indiana Pacers - T.J. Leaf, PF, UCLA
Leaf hit a scalding 46 percent of his three-pointers playing next to Lonzo Ball at UCLA. The only issue is that he didn’t do it at a high volume, canning only 27 threes all season. If his efficiency can maintain as his volume rises, he deserves to be a lottery pick. He’ll have to answer a lot of questions defensively either way.
19. Atlanta Hawks - Jarrett Allen, C, Texas
The Hawks just gave away Dwight Howard, so a center at No. 19 makes a lot of sense. Patton and Allen are arguably the two top available talents at the position. Allen’s superior defensive potential gives him the advantage here.
20. Portland Trail Blazers - Ike Anigbogu, C, UCLA
Anigbogu profiles as a classic rim protector who can set screens and catch lobs on the offensive end. That’s a dimension Portland doesn’t have right now with Jusuf Nurkic.
21. Oklahoma City Thunder - Derrick White, G, Colorado
It’s wild to think White anyone played one year of D1 ball at Colorado. He has a complete skill set for a guard: he can shoot, pass and handle with enough size and athleticism to play either backcourt spot. I see him as a player who could eventually either play next to or backup Russell Westbrook.
22. Brooklyn Nets - Harry Giles, C, Duke
Giles is the perfect pick for a team that has multiple selections in the first round and needs to swing for the fences. He was the former No. 1 high school player in the country before repeated knee injuries took a toll on his production at Duke. If he can get and stay healthy, hopefully he can still fulfill the potential so many scouts saw in him as a prep star.
23. Toronto Raptors - Semi Ojeleye, F, SMU
Ojeleye has three level scoring ability in a ridiculously strong 6’6 frame with a 40-inch vertical. There are questions about if he has the lateral quickness to defend threes or the length to play the four, but he’s skilled enough to carve out a role either way.
24. Utah Jazz - Tyler Lydon, PF, Syracuse
Lydon hit 40 percent of his threes over two years of college ball at Syracuse. There’s a spot in the first round for a front court shooter like that.
25. Orlando Magic - Terrance Ferguson, SG, Adelaine
Ferguson is this draft’s top high school player who decided to go overseas instead of play college basketball. He has great size (6’7) for a two guard with a nice shooting stroke and impressive athleticism. Scouts will question his feel for the game and his ability to break down defenders off the dribble. At this point in the draft, he’s a good gamble for the Magic.
26. Portland Trail Blazers - Kyle Kuzma, F, Utah
Kuzma is a big 6’9 forward who is comfortable making decisions with the ball in his hands. Portland could use a different dimension at the four and Kuzma’s combination of size and feel for the game would offer it.
27. Los Angeles Lakers - Justin Patton, C, Creighton
Patton could legitimately go in the lottery. He’s an athletic center who can run the floor, score around the basket and is just starting to scratch the surface of his skill level. It feels like there’s one player like that who falls every year. Skal Labissiere is the patron saint.
28. Los Angeles Lakers - Wesley Iwundu, SF, Kansas State
If Iwundu’s jumper comes around, he’s going to have a long NBA career. He’s a 6’7 wing with good defensive potential and impressive passing ability.
29. San Antonio Spurs - Anzejs Pasecniks, C, Latvia
A 7’3 center who can shoot? He feels like one of the biggest sleepers in this draft. Of course the Spurs get him.
30. Utah Jazz - Frank Jackson, G, Duke
Jackson is an athletic 6’3 guard who can hit jumpers off the dribble. He didn’t get the opportunity to show everything he can do at Duke, but he has the talent to carve out an NBA career. He also grew up in Utah. It’s a nice note to end on.
