I did my Bachelors in Electronics Engineering from a among a top school in Mumbai, India. I also got a job at a big US bank in Mumbai as an Application Developer.
I have completed 2 years with the firm. About a two years back, I applied for Masters in Computers Science at various colleges in US as I wanted to pursue a technical career. I did get accepted to New York University(NYU) for MSCS. But now I feel that doing an MBA would be a better option.
Though I have my F1 visa in hand. I am a bit confused. My question is:
1. Would it be good option to pursue Master in Computer Science and then go for my MBA(after some experience)? This would give me international experience. But is it good option to put in the time for Masters and work experience. Currently I am 24, by the time I apply for MBA I would be around 28 with 4 years of experiences.
2. How are Masters student viewed by the MBA application committees at top B-schools in US?
3. Would it a better option to wait and prepare for MBA in India/abroad?
Some background information:
Percentage according to Indian system: 69.7%-------- Should be around 3.3-3.5 GPA(Not sure just a guess)
Work Experience: 2 years
Age: 23 years and 8 months
