I'm a first-year business student, who currently knows nothing of business (no high school business courses are required or even recommended to attend this school). I'm having trouble understanding a plethora of business-related terms (trusts, dividends, options, to name a few). Does anyone know a site where I can get a reader's digest, "business for idiots" type overview of some business terms?

There's scads of them out there on the net.

Here's one.

And here's a list of many more.

Hope this helps!

I am currently in MBA school also. I have 2 more classes after this semester and I am done! I cant wait!

But in regards to you updating yourself in B-school... just check out a few websites on the specific topics you need to know.

In regards to dividens, options and that it looks like you should go to your school or on a website and look up finance as the topic... you can catch up fast!

Good luck!
