Can a $200+ Million Business Mogul Pass an A-level Exam in Business Studies?

Written by Michael | Posted in Entrepreneur News | No comments

Millionaire business mogul Peter Jones, famed for reality shows such as Dragon’s Den and American Inventor went back to school recently, to see if he could join the 97.2% of people who passed in the UK this year.

Peter took up the challenge from a cheeky reporter, and the two of them not only sat the test in exam conditions, but they didn’t have any lessons or guidance in advance.

Carroline Iggulden, the reporter in question added: “Peter and I sat the 90-minute Corporate Strategy paper in strict exam conditions and then had our papers taken away to be marked by a retired A-level examiner.”

So what was the result?

Peter passed with a grade-A and the reporter got an E.

Peter said: “I found doing the paper fun, but obviously felt the pressure because I had nothing to gain and everything to lose.”

“If I didn’t get a top grade, even though I’ve never done an hour of the course, everyone who got a better grade could say they beat Peter Jones at business studies!

“That would annoy me!”

Hats off to Peter for having the nerve to do it. He is very much an entrepreneur to follow.
