If you apply for the early deadline, you can significantly increase your changes of getting into HBS.  There are a lot less competition with more slots available.\n\nFrom a career point of view, you want to notify your employer that you have been admitted to b-school as late as possible (such as after you receive your bonus).

If you're planning on getting your MBA, you'll probably have to have some work experience first before you are admitted to the best schools in the U.S.  You should check out the Wall Street Journal, they do a yearly survey of the best MBA schools.  More recently it's been the business school at Dartmouth, but as said before you'll need a top GPA and excellent work experience.

Im currently in the process of becoming a tax attorney or corporate lawyer, I cant decide.  I have completed my undergraduate degree in accounting and I am in an MBA program.  Also, I am applying to law school for fall 07.  The university I attend has a J.D. program where I can get both my law degree and MBA at the same time while reducing the number of hours incurred by pursuing them independently.  For specifically tax law/attorney, I would suggest an undergraduate degree in preferably accounting, a MS accountancy or MBA and law school.  Also, it is a very good idea to test for the CPA as mentioned earlier.  Keep your GPA as high as possible and do as well as you can on the LSAT, everything else is destiny.

Not sure what you mean by "winter training".  Not every MBA program is going to require an internship, if that's what you mean.  And every company is going to be different in what it allows (or will pay for) for its employees' education.  \n\nAre you expecting people to rattle off a list of companies that will allow you to take time off for this unspecific "winter training"?  It's going to depend on the company and on the job you do there, and on how much the MBA is going to help you in the job.  It's going to vary a lot.  You didn't even tell us what city you're in!  How do you expect an answer?  If the MBA program you want has some sort of winter training, then you need to be up front about that at your job interviews and see what the HR representative says about their policies.  Best answer I can come up with for such an unspecific question.

Take the university with the higher world ranking.  Even if one university is well-known for their business school, that doesn't mean that the other university, which is better and more well-known, doesn't have a good commerce program as well.  Besides, if you decide to change fields, then it would be better to be in a more acclaimed university.  Besides, employers would probably recognize that school more than the other, just because it's within the top 50.

You have to look at MBA as a brand.  So you go to Chicago GSB or Harvard you get a brand.  Just like a razor, yet now it is Gillette versus say imaginary "sharp edge plus".  Even if they were the same quality, Gillette can charge more for their razor as it has a desired brand.\n\nFrom a personal growth perspective, you will not learn substentially more in Chicago Gsb vs 2.nd tier MBA program.  You will not get out any more clever than you came in, although Chicago GSB or Wharton only allows some of the best and brightest...  What you will get instead is being in the class with higher tier or people, both professors like Scott Meadow, Warren Batts, Kevin Murphy, Kaplan, Becker and Eugine Fama and your peer students vs. in 2nd tier schools. You will get to have a network of people who have won the Nobel prize and/or had been CEO's directors etc. of major companies.  You will end-up using them for the rest of your life.\n\nSo if your sole reason is to make more money using the brand or your network, it is no use for you to go to a 2nd tier school.\n\nIf you are going to better your self, and learn.  Then top tier vs. 2nd tier makes not much of a difference, maybe the learning experience might be better in top tier, yet if you work hard on it, it will be all the same.

Harvard or Yale, if I had the money.

It depends on what your focus of study you are interested. There are schools of concentration within the Business College and while Harvard may rank higher in one area, Northwestern or Wharton may be stronger in others. I would also consider your financial situation. You could get a better education going to one of the so called "Ivy League" schools, but I think you can get just as good of an education at many state universities and colleges. You will pay significantly more for your education at an ivy league school than a state school. Keep in mind when you are quoted salaries from these schools, where those graduates are going to be working. If you go to work for a company in New York or the Northeast, your starting salary will probably be higher than if you go to work for a company in the South or Midwest. Salaries will usually be comparable when adjusted for the regional cost of living. You will pay several times the tuition at one of the ivy league colleges as you would a state school. Most of the business colleges teach basically the same courses. The primary advantage is that you may have some opportunites to network because you went to Harvard, for instance. Once you get into the workforce, it makes little difference where you got your MBA. After a couple of years the only thing an employer will be interest is your job performance. If you will need to pay for your own MBA it will likely take several years longer to repay any loan than if you went to a good state school. The University of Texas and University of Tennessee  are two good business schools. So are Harvard and Yale. The difference in tuition is tremendous. I knew of one individual who received an MBA from the University of Tennessee several years ago who had a starting salary of more than $90M.

It's all what you make of it.\n\nAn ivy league degree will open more doors for you and perhaps give you access to one-on-one with better learned professors (although increasingly the profs avoid students like the plague, at least in undergrad classes).  Someone going to a solid state school may learn just as much but probably wont’ be challenged to do so the way ivy league students are.  Employers know this an thus they usually prefer an ivy league graduate when taking applications.\n\nIf you have the finances for it I would go with an ivy league school.  If money may be an issue or your career field doesn’t require an ivy league reputation to get your foot in the door then I would go with a state school.\n\nEdit: It's also important to note that most of the business managers I've spoken with regard experience and a history of successful leadership much more favorably than a degree. \n\nRegards,\nArmus

There are a lot of "ifs" here -- but you could get into Chicago with a 3.6 at OSU -- providing you meet the other criteria.\n\nThe top business schools look at lots of different things.  GPA is one of those things -- but a very high GPA is less important for an MBA than it is for many other disciplines.  They will look at the combined GPA from both schools -- which would put you at around 3.2 or 3.3.  This is in the low range of average for the top schools -- so wouldn't keep you out.  In your cover letter, you can even address your grades, pointing out your improvement.\n\nSO far, so good.  There are several other things they will look at when deciding your fate:\n\n1.  Essays -- these are critical.\n\n2.  Quality of your undergraduate institution.  OSU isn't a home run for you -- but it isn't going to make them laugh, either.\n\n3.  Work Experience.  The top schools want four years of work experience on average.  The quality of that work experience is also important.  Two years working in import/export in a foreign country will do more than six years in am uninteresting white collar job.\n\n4.  Interview -- this will not usually get you in, but could keep you out if you screw it up.\n\n5.  GMAT -- Anything under 600 is a negative.  Anything above 700 is a positive.\n\n6.  Recommendations.\n\n7.  What can you contribute?  Are you going to be someone other students learn from?  Will you add to the diversity of the program?, etc.

Generally, it's a good idea to have anywhere between a 3.7 to 4.0 GPA in the hardest possible courses in your major. In addition, make sure that your GREs,MCATs,GMATs,LSATs, etc are in the 90th percentile and above. \n Of course, there are other things that they take into consideration, such as your Statement of Purpose, and your letters of recommendations. \n If your grades are top notch and standardized test scores are phenomenal, then you have made several steps into getting for Harvard for grad school.Make sure you professors write phenomenal letters. However, if your grades and test scores are high,you're practically in to NYU, unless you apply to Stern Business School, where it's just as competitive as Harvard, except Harvard is more competitive.\n  It all depends on what you want to do in graduate school.

i am also facing this problem. but generally, i think its better to take master after obtainig some working experience. because u can then apply wat i have gained in the workforce to complete ur assignment. i think master of finance has a greater prospect. master of economics gives me the impression that only people intend to be a lecturer will opt for..hehe..jus a small opinion.

Wow.  There are some pretty negative answers in this thread.\n\nPick a good program.  Pick a highly rated program.  The brand *is* part of the value of an MBA, and frankly, the lower rated programs aren't that much cheaper.  Here in the Bay Area, Haas (Berkeley) has a great ranking (top 5 in part time rankings, recently been in the top 10 for full time).  I am currently a student at Haas (in the PT program), and I can't understand why people would pick a different program in this region.  Stanford, unfortunately, doesn't have a part time program.\n\nI agree with the previous poster who said you need to have an idea what you want out of it.  Go in with a plan on how you're going to get value from the MBA, and just from being a student.  I'm amazed at the access I get just by being an MBA student.  It opens a lot of doors.  But you need to be very goal directed to get this value.\n\nI can't agree with the person who said networking in a PT program isn't good.  As a current PT student, I have an *amazing* network of rising stars at a number of bay area companies, right now.  Comparing notes with some co-workers who are recent graduates from the FT programs at Wharton, Stanford, Columbia, it's clear that my network is broader, more active, and more useful right now than their networks.\n\nSo - to your actual question.  If you are in the Bay Area, pick Berkeley (I'm biased, obviously).  Really, you can gain a lot of value from any part time MBA program.  But talk to people, figure out how *you* can gain value from an MBA, and then go from there.

If you mean which one has higher salary packages, I would say Finance people are typically paid more out of business school. Growth prospects... totally dependent on where in finance or marketing one wants to go.
