I have already done my MBA from India and that was 5 years back. I am planning to do a MBA in Finance from US. Should I consider doing an MBA in Finance or consider doing MS in Finance.

Can you help me to choose ?
How are the job and career prospects for a MBA in finance compared to job and career prospects for a MS in Finance ?

Pls forgive me if I am repeating a question asked earlier ?

Dear joefreddy:

Many US MBA programs do not consider applicants that already have a MBA from another school. So, you will need to check with any school you are considering to determine whether or not you are eligible to apply. Likewise, MS in Finance programs may or may not consider your application depending on the curriculum of the degree you received in India.

As for career opportunities, the opportunities would differ by school and is something you will want to research. Generally speaking, MS programs have a larger percentage of students without professional work experience.

"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."
