Hi,
I am Aluru. I would like to pursue MBA, one year course. I am a Mech Engineer (product design and development) with 15 years of exp. and in the middle management roles.

I am confused whether to go for Executive MBA or full time MBA by leaving job.

Can someone advice me. In fact I am in the middle of GMAT prep. considering one year full time MBA in one of the institutes:LBS, ISB, IIMA.

Thanks
Aluru

We dont know anything about your personal circumstances, your aim in life, and what you like and dislike, so cant give sharp, focussed advise

In general, it is better to do a MBA from premier institutes , do it full time, and do it well. The idea is to get a good foundation to understand business better, and take better decisions : you may gain a little or lose a llittle in terms of the job that you do on day 1, but that is not the point.

And for that, part time does not work as well as a good MBA for a good B School, preferably a 2 year full time course of IIM

Cheers !
