I am starting to look into MBA programs. I am currently working full time. I did little research for MBA programs. but, I can not decide if I should go for full time MBA and quit my job or pursue MBA part time and keep my full time job.
So, kindly provide me some advice.

If you google PT vs. FT MBA programs you'll get a lot of articles that tell you what to consider. That's probably where you should start first.

My goal is to make MBA applicants take onus over their process.

Hi there,

There are a lot of good reasons for both types of programs and they have their own cons as well. Generally speaking, however, part time programs are great for those looking to continue in the same career path or a very similar one and are looking to fill fundamental academic gaps. The chances for structured career services and extracurriculars are limited but you also don't have the much larger bill of a full time program.

On the other hand, if you're interested in the MBA experience or are adamant about switching career tracks, then a full time program gives you the involvement opportunities and internship capacity to help enable that. It also costs a pretty penny

There are a lot of personal and professional decisions that go into determining which is the right option for you and if you want to talk it through with someone, feel free to set up time with me. I'm happy to help!

"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."
