The question that you ask is almost an impossible one for anyone (other than yourself) to answer. The two paths are very different!! You need to consider the type of career that you would like. Do you enjoy technology and technology management or are you more interested in marketing (which often involves pricing decisions, branding, product placement and sales elements - but, "marketing" is a broad field as is "technology management").

Generally, an MBA is a broader degree and will be more helpful as you progress in a career. Business schools usually provide plenty of opportunities for you to learn about different careers and will also enable you to have an internship so that you can further refine your goals. However, you will not be admitted to a business school (at least not a good one) unless you can articulate what it is you hope to do with the degree (and why you need to degree). I'd put some thought into this and perhaps have a few discussions with professionals in various fields so that you can better understand your options.

"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."
