Hi marcos,
since you have an M.A. in quantitative methods and now going for an M.B.A. I want to ask you a few Q's which would really help me. I recently graduated with a B.S. Economics...what were the job prospects after the M.A.? What has made you opt for an MBA now? I am torn between an MBA and a Masters in finance..which do you think has better prospects..? Any comments will be highly appreciated. |

Hi Truman,
An MA or an MBA. Look, the MA was useful and gave me a strong quanitative foundation which is appreciated by most employers. However, an MBA in my opinion is more marketable. If you have the money and the time apply for an MBA and you'll take finance courses there. However, if you really want to become an expert in finance and possibly move on to a Phd then do so. I know many people that went on to get great jobs with an MA in finance. Hope this helps. |

Hi Marcos,
Finally someone who has given me a hint of the difference between M.A and an MBA! the thing is that I can't tell what is the difference between a M.A and a M.S?! I've understood from your previous statement that the M.A is quantitative then what about the M.S! Mainly I think that the M.A finance prg. is more academic than professional and the M.S is a lot more professional prg. is that right in a real world experience! Please provide me with a clue. sonia. |
