If you are looking at MBA programs in the US, most will not only focus on power/energy. You will still need a "skill" area in addition to an industry focus (are you interested in financing? operations? marketing? all of the above?). Most top schools will have clubs and classes that will help you refine your skill set and find a position in your chosen industry. Not surprisingly, many of the Texas schools are strong in power/energy. But, remember, business schools are designed to give you broad exposure to business (not industry) issues.

My husband and I are both Booth graduates. He has always worked in energy and his colleagues have degrees from many different business schools.

Good luck to you!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
