If you want to make changes then a full time MBA is better. Edinburgh has a lot of North Americans, so don't worry too much about that.

However if you don't want to change career, role or region the. take a part time MBA.

Given the your current circumstances of being employed full time, and if you want to remain employed, the SDSU's MBA is a decent course to pursue.

I think you guys are, what the hell are you thinking when you are employed and whale you are from Alberta.

I only consider doing an MBA right now if I am sacked or I go to Oxford Cambridge or top 10 American.

Any other things dont add a lot of value if you
+ have a decent undergraduate degree from a highly developed country
+ Good job with decent pay no asshole around
+ Dont think you will get your P45 or whatever tax paper in North America coming to your desk

MBA you can attend anytime, good jobs are rare.

Whales, i just read your post again, if you are middle manager no school is glasgow will help you because your colleagues are all specialists or junior staff. Many of Your teachers never manage a team. Go for a top MBA else you really are crazy

I dont what you are talking about really. You start by counter my arguments and then your narrative agree with me 100%.

The last bit about top your preference for Glasgow MBA does not really add anything into the discussion. I never say Glasgow is bad for you or anyone simply because of the ranking.

Top MBA students do understand what is coming

Thanks for the replies everyone. I guess I'm still at a stalemate on what to do. I understand that having a job in the current economic climate is extremely important. I also understand that doing a part time program while working full time will be time consuming (as WhaleNuts pointed out). Full time at Edinburgh and I'll be done in a year, part time in the States and I'll be done in 2-1/2 years. I'm not so concerned with the ranking of the school as much as if they have a solid MBA program.

It depends on your goals. If you have the option to study full-time, then I think you'll have a better experience than combining work with study.
