Thanks!

But in general, just try to read and learn. Obviously, read the search fund specific literature. There's not much of it, but the little bit that's out there is worthwhile. Develop your business skills. You want to be learning for the rest of your life, but if you have the time now before business school, learn from others' mistakes so you don't have to undergo the painful experience of learning from your own.
