I'm a Singaporean and I'm 33 years old this year. I've some questions about the MBA which I hope you can help.
At 33, and having worked in an IT firm for 6 years in Singapore, I'm considering leaving my job to do a full-time MBA.
1) Am I considered too old for an MBA now?
2) Should I do one in the US or UK (I know UK programs last only a year)?
3) If I want to say work in Finance (a bank) - does an MBA with Finance specialization make sense?
4) Should I worry about employability after the MBA? I ideally want to work in the UK (if I do a UK degree) or US (if I do a US degree) for a 1 or 2 years, then come back to Singapore to work.
5) Is going to a good school important? I'm thinking of the Cranfield MBA in the UK, I know it is not as 'high-class' as Harvard, INSEAD, etc.
Thanks for your help.
Best Regards
