Hi Lisa,

I am Investment Consultant in big Swiss bank (I worked during 18 months in Switzerland) with 7y professional experience in financial markets (Private banking division). Apparently, I have very good profile for a MBA according to Wharthon and Columbia recruiting and enrollement officer.

I think a MBA is a full time. Now, some friends told me I have to think about executive MBA. I am 32y old and have african origin. I born in France (french citizen)

What do you think as Consultant ? Have to revise my first goal to do a full time ?

kind Regards,

Xbond

An executive MBA is an excellent option if you plan to stay on the same career track and also if your company is willing to pay for your MBA. However, if you are seeking a career transition or would like to fully immerse yourself in an academic setting, then the traditional MBA might be a better fit.

"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."
