BTW, if your ultimate goal is teaching & research, my advice is to try some MA or MS programs in, for example, statistics, rather than MBA. A master's in statistics or other displine-oriented programs will help you better in terms of getting into a PhD program than will an MBA.
For example, if you want to get into a doctoral program in marketing, getting a master's in stats or psychology from a US school will definitely help. However, with an MBA degree, it's still much better than nothing, but not so helpful if you still want to apply to PhD afterwards. |
