Hi everyone!
In a few months I will finish my residency program to become an general surgeon. I want to learn what I could not study during my degree. This type of thinking really gives me the energy to do the GMAT and to try to get admitted in one top MBA.
What would you recommend me? What MBA program would fit it with my profile?
I don't know whether I should try to focus on MBA programs that are focused on healthcare or not.
Thank you very much!!

What would you like to do with the MBA? Are you planning to go into clinical practice and do other work on the side? While you don't need a program in healthcare, it would make sense with your profile. Without seeing your stats it is hard to recommend a specific program, but Wharton is a great one to target. While some schools do not have dedicated healthcare programs, they have great offerings within an MBA. You should look at Harvard, Berkeley Haas and Kellogg, among others.empo01 wrote:Hi everyone!

I think you'll need a really good story on why you are going to get an MBA after you have finished your residency program. You don't want to give the impression to the admissions committee that you are just collecting degrees. Honestly, why on earth would you want to go for an MBA right now after spending so much time and money on being a surgeon?
