Max Grodecki from Kent will perhaps be hoping that his Economics studies will come in handy this year during his battle for success in the BBC\u2019s Young Apprentice series.<\/p>\n
The 16 year old A Level student joins 11 other teenagers in the hit BBC series to compete for a cash prize of \u00a325,000 from Lord Sugar to get them started in a business venture. On entering the competition, Max said: \u201cI\u2019m certainly not someone who likes to follow the crowd. I think if you follow the crowd, you don\u2019t get seen.\u201d<\/p>\n
