Dear AGupta,

Whether or not the Msc program is the right choice for you depends on what your career goals are and what you are looking for in your graduate education. It is possible it is the right fit--but only you can really answer that question. Generally speaking, you have enough work experience for any graduate business program, but I don' t know enough about your professional experience to comment on the quality of that experience. Likewise, being an engineer from India is a common profile in the applicant pool, so you will want to find a way to positively distinguish yourself from the competition through your essays, recommendations and interviews. I encourage you to do some more research on Msc and MBA programs, as well as schools, to determine what is right for you.

Good luck,
Lisa
