Birmingham MBA vs Glasgow MBA


Posted May 01, 2010 13:48

Hi all,
I am new to the forum and I would be very pleased, if somebody can help with an advice or two:)
I recently got an unconditional offer for Birmingham FT (1Y) MBA and for Glasgow University FT MBA. I did quite a lot of research and I think both BS are good (reputation, accreditation, etc.).
Before I make a final decision is there somebody who can comment on 1) which MBA would be better for business consulting career (I think Glasgow MBA is more generally focused while Birmingham MBA is more focused in finance, correct me, if I am wrong and 2) does anybody have an idea what would be better, in general, regarding class size. Glasgow have much smaller classes then Birmingham,... Do you find smaller classes as advantage or disadvantage.

Many thanks for help.

Tony

Hi Tony,

Even I've received unconditional offer from Uni of Glasgow (MBA) and others....And after all the research, found it to be a good choice. One of my friends is a current student here and he says its all fine...But when it comes to jobs...it all depends on your past experience......Although the program has small class size...it focuses on community approach, which I believe will be very effective....

Hi Tony,
Did Birmingham conduct any interview for you? In how many days do they revert back with the response on the submitted application?

Thanks.
