      "Snapshots from Hell" by Peter Robinson is a great description of an MBA, with some good descriptions about finance and consulting.

      Snapshots from Hell: The Making of an MBA by Peter Robinson

      This isn't the one I was thinking of and I only found it because I vaguely know the author.

      Peter Cohen's The Gospel According to the Harvard Business School is another older one.

      There's a third I was thinking of but I don't see it on my shelf and it seems to be Google resistant.
