funnytiger, could you tell me how long it is averagely going to take to finish Phd in finance after I finish 2 years studying in Master in Finance? I think timing between Phd candidate from master graduate and  hd candidate from Undergraduate will be different.
I am thinking to apply for Phd in finance from one of Asian school a year later, because I like to work in Asian area, and I think it will save me time to finish Phd in asian school. Am I right? And could you recommend a couple of asian school for me? Do they normally require GMAT or GRE?
Hope you're not overwhelmed. Really appreciate!
first, I would like to let you know that I am NOT a PHD student. So if anyone who is currently a student, please correct me if I am wrong.
In US, average time you have to spend for finance PHD is about 6 years. your MA degree won't help you much in terms of length of study(there are special cases though)
a Biz PHD in UK, Singapore, Canada is a nice degree, but it is far different from a US Biz degree. you won't find the similar emphasis on research outside US (again, there are special cases). After all, it is your research paper that will land you a decent job
if you just want to work in a finance company in asia, I guess a PHD from local school should be just fine. But if you want life-changing experience, I guess US Biz PHD maybe the only choice you have.
honestly, I don't know that many asian biz schools. but I suppose, big three in HK can help you to land a job in HK and maybe mainland China. you have to check each school's website to find out whether GRE or GMAT is required.
hope this helps
