I've been working in the Middle East for a couple of years (European citizen) and have started considering pursuing an MBA in order to switch careers and get into something a bit more profitable and competitive. Given my slightly disjointed background, I know that an MBA won't do miracles, but it might help me get into the world of finance (or tech) from at least not the very bottom of the ladder (ideally). So I'd love to know which programmes in the area are worth considering and how competitive they are (plus how hard they may be to get into if you don't have the most relevant background).
Thanks a lot.
