Dear Stacy,
I would like your feedback on my situation. I am currently 35 years old and will be attending UCLA's masters program for financial engineering. It is a 1 year program. I have 10+ years experience in quantitative roles ( all on an analyst/associate) levels. I want to parlay my skill set into a management role in the near future after completing my grad degree, rather just being a "numbers cruncher." Ideally, I would like to look at EMBA because the age profile fits my age, but I have not had any extensive managerial experience which is what I think an EMBA is looking for. I want to consider Wharton's EMBA down the road, but since Stanford or Harvard don't have EMBA program, do you think that with a good GMAT score and good grad school grades, that I have a good reason to pursue those full-time programs? I greatly appreciate the insight.
