I wanted to give you some help in deciding which MBA to choose (assuming that you have already decided to go for an MBA). As the degree is quite expensive, it is important to choose wisely and pick an MBA that helps you to fulfil your aspirations.

As an ambitious student or a working professional with a few years of experience under their belt, you may have thought about going to the US to get an MBA degree. After all, MBAs are an American creation and while universities worldwide now offer the degree, US business schools still dominate the space.

A question that I get asked quite often is whether to pursue an MBA or a CFA to accelerate your career. The short answer is – it depends, so buckle up and follow me through a couple of aspects to consider.

The master of finance and management are two of the most prestigious and sought-after programs. Completing one of the two courses at a top business school will significantly improve your career prospects and impact positively your future salary.

If there is one single piece of advice that I can give is to start your MBA journey early, ideally 18-24 months before you are planning to start you MBA.

Once you have decided to go for an MBA you will have probably understood that the score in your GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test) is quite important in the application process.
