Which MBA Program for a practicing Lawyer?

by Swishsam » Tue Dec 24, 2013 9:16 pm
Hi all,

I am hoping you could provide me with a little bit of insight/encouragement with respect to my upcoming application for a business school either in the United States, Canada or internationally. My stats are as follows:

1. 30 years old;
2. practiced as a corporate lawyer for three years;
3. BA and LLB from Canadian universities;
4. 3.7gpa undergrad in last two years;
5. 3.2gpa law degree; and
6. Haven't completed the GMAT yet but conservatively estimate a 630-650 score.

My priorities in picking a business school are as follows:

1. Best ranking possible given the GMAT score;
2. Excellent post-graduate employment statistics; and
3. Best value either through a relatively lower cost for the MBA program or from a wide range of financial support and scholarships.


Please let me know what you think on the above and if you have any other suggestions or tips for me going forward. Which schools in the US, Canada or Internationally should I consider?

I am considering applying for the 2014 intake and would probably apply to three or four.

Thank you.
