Posted Jan 10, 2021 11:51

Hi,

Profile: - Product Owner(IT) in one of the largest Invest Banks in India experience will be 10 years in 2021 by the time I will apply for MBA colleges.
No direct International Experience

Query - 1) By the time , I will get myself admit into EMBA course I will be 34 years . Will MBA at this junction encouraged? Is it something I should be trying or I am already too late?
2) What college should I target because my goal is to aim for C-suite roles down the line or may be start something on my own(digital transformation) down the line. What would be the target GMAT score I should aim?

That's not very specific. Read the post on my page about career goals.

Aiming for C-suite at a good firm is a very different goal than starting your own business. A good EMBA might help with the former, but a different approach might be necessary for the latter.
