标题: Help wanted PT Vs FT MBA

Dear CDers,

I got an offer from a top PT MBA program in nyc and I am working with a top IB firm now.

Should I go for the PT MBA now? Or just working for another 2-3 years, then go to Harvard or Stanford instead?

Any suggestion?

Thanks in advance.

I am curious of the details. Why you wana go to Harvard or Stanford since you are in IB? How do you consider the advantage/disadvantage of PT/FT MBA programe.. Any of you background info? hehe....

I am messing around the tough choice too. ;)

My two cents, If you are very busy you may take FT programe.

If you are not so busy, you may take PT programe.

I am guessing that you got admissions from columbia or nyu's part time program and you are an analyst at a bulge bracket? Whats the rush? Go look for a job at a hedge fund or p/e if you are fed up with banking then apply to a top ten program. If things don't work out you can also apply for the one year program at columbia.

Im not a HF guy, maybe PE is more appropriate for me. As to the offer from the top part time program, I think its good enough in terms of the reputation and location unless i could get offer from HBS or Stanford. As to the one year program in Columbia you mentioned, its not a MBA degree,more like certification for people who wanna transfer to the financial realm from other industies, so I dont think its worth that money and time since Im already in IB firm. While, the MBA degree is another story towards the career. A lot of third year analysts in my firm go to the top Bschool to pursue a more promising future. im just considering should I do it now or later? Also around 40% of them may go to HBS or Stanford, but not all.

Then go look for a PE job and make some more money. The one year program is a shortened verson of the full time two year program. You will still receive the MBA no different than the two year program. The only difference is that you won't be doing an internship. Most of the people in that program have finance background and will go back to finance hence no internships needed. Is always better to do the MBA early.
