Books to read for a business personal statement

I'm going into year 12 this year and I want to do as much super curricular things as I can for my personal statement. Can anyone recommend any books, podcasts, documentaries etc?
We can't recommend anything if we don't know what subject you want to study at uni!

Well there’s How to Win Friends & Influence People,” by Dale Carnegie, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson, The Wolf of Wall Street by Jordan Belfort. Things like that
Look at the reading lists of your unis for a good starting point :smile:
Look on Amazon

I've read 'How to Win Friends & Influence People' book when I was young, is it reputable enough/or related for business management?
You should ensure that whatever you include is focused on the academic study of business
