Why you want to do MBA?\nWhy there is financial problem?\nWhy you want a good college?\nThink, with your available resources what you can do the best. All jobs are important if well done.

Depends where you're going to be employed. For instance, one with accounting degree will be lucky to work for an investment bank while the management graduate went to work for a not well-known insurance firm so he'd make less than the accountant in Morgan Stanley for example. It can go vice versa. All depends on your ambition, non-academic skills, networking, and then your major and grades. \n\nIn selecting your major, take the one you will most likely succeed at. If you are very good with numbers, accounting is for you. If you are very good conceptualist, go for the mgt. One is certainly overrides the other.

I want a career in finance and management too. I picked: business, maths, sociology (not my 1st choice) and psychology. \n\nBusiness studies obviously.\nMaths would be excellent if you are good at. It is sometimes essiential at top universities to study finance.\nIf you are interested in English that would be good. But i think other than business and maths any other subjects are fine excluding stuff like art, drama as its not entirely academic.

It depends. I think the strength and value of your MBA will depend on your grades. If you're not a very quantitative person, your grades in finance will probably suffer. Most people who do finance MBAs aspire to work in investment banking, sales & trading or even venture capital. These industries are extremely competitive and offer very good salaries. Chances are that if you've got a lousy MBA from a lousy school, you're not going to get into any of the top firms and will probably end up being a lowly analyst for a long time in some small run down place. If you're dynamic, smart and love to talk best you go for Marketing. If you excel in that field, marketing executives and marketing managers do lead very good lives - travel, stay in top hotels and network with the top brains. Choose wisely. Good luck!

It depends what type of hedge fund you're running and what your role at the hedge fund will be.  If you're going to be sitting back, mostly getting more clients into the fund and selling the fund, probably an MBA.  If you're going to be the person who works the stat arb models at the fund, then the PhD might suit you better.\n\nIf you're going to be the stock picker at a long-term equity neutral fund that's based on fundamentals, then it probably doesn't matter at all.

Whether you want to study further or work depends on how you are placed in life right now, \n\nIf you have any financial difficulty it would be better to take up some BPO work and start earning. Else complete ur MBA and then look for a job.

I have noticed that there is a recent spike in demand for quants by investment banks and hedge and private equity firms. A doctorate in the finance discipline would definitely boost your chances of enhancing your qualifications. In any case, it would not have any downside at all except for your time and effort.

PGDBA is Post Graduation Diploma in Business Administration and MBA is Master of Business Administartion. Both are the best courses and both of these have their importance.

It all depends on your career goals, and what your aptitudes are. They are both excellent, but each require different skillsets. \n\nYou will need to be good at accounting and to thoroughly understand accounting principles if you want to pursue finance.

From my experience, finance career is more lucrative. If you are an MBA, take the investment banking path. It pays the most.

It depends on:\n1) Stage of your career\nIf you are early or in the middle of your career, getting MBA has more value.  MBA is an investment and can be expensive.  It probably makes less sense to pursue your MBA if you are a year from retiring.\n2) Career goals\nIf you want to accelerate your career, change industries, and/or change functions, MBA would be a good vehicle.\n3) Intellectual curiousity\nIf you want to learn more about business, getting an MBA would help you learn about it.\n\nGood luck and have a nice day!

Hi, Kondru.  Just by doing MBA in Finance, one shouldn't be so ambitious.  Your language should be precise and your skills in financial interpretations have still to be sharpened.  After these things are achieved, certainly you can fly to USA provided you are blessed by the lady luck!

Your question does not appear to be complete. Still, i suggest you to select Maths or Eco. depending upon your competancy and liking in either of these subjects.\nI presume that u want to go for MBA after that. So either of these would be useful. Maths remains the basis for getting into a good college besides most of the courses would become easy for a student with Mathematics background. Similary, eco students are also well placed during MBA.
