Advice needed for MBA


Can anyone help me in finding out the best college/university for a single year MBA program within Asian countries like Singapore, China, Hong Kong, etc.

I am having more than 5 yrs of work experience with a very less GMAT score of 510. I am not expecting the scholarship but a good college/university with the details stated.

INSEAD in Singapore is definitely the best 1 year programme in Asia.
But your GMAT score should be 700+ (or at least 650+ with a stellar work experience or extra-curriculars).

Hi,
As the previous poster said, go for INSEAD in Singapore. I'd also add HKUST, Tsinghua, Pekin U, HKU, Chinese U, National University of Singapore to the bunch.

I'm not sure if these b-schools offer a 1 year MBA programme though...

My apologies. I overlooked "single year" in the original post. But if you're interested , HKUST does have an EMBA program (partnered wtih Kellogg)

Thanks for all the helpful suggestions but as the GMAT score is so less like 510 only, can my 5 + years of work experience be helpful to get admission for a 1 year MBA course.

It depends on the work experience.
Seriously, even with a good work experience, a top tier MBA such as INSEAD will be hard to get into if you have less than 650 at your GMAT.
And 5+ years of experience is just average for a 1 year MBA anyway.

I'm in no way a GMAT whore, but if you don't plan to improve on your GMAT, you'd better have extremely solid work experience or extra curriculars, otherwise you may need to revise your plan on attending a top 1 year MBA.

Hey,
How do you study for your GMAT? You can definitely improve your score. Also, if you're going to count on your 510 GMAT to get in, then you're going to have to put a lot of work on your essays and have some good stories to tell.

Hi nitin,

If you can work on improving your GMAT, at least toward 550-580, you can shoot for the Hult International Business School:
http://www.find-mba.com/board/5962

It's an american b-school based in Boston who launched a campus in Dubai last year and a campus in Shanghai this year.
The average work experience is 7 years, so you should feel at home there.

Hi all,

I work for Hult International Business School and I think it might definitely be worth looking into. It offers a one-year MBA program (http://www.hult.edu/mba-program/our-program/curriculum) and the average GMAT score is 530 due to the importance admissions stresses on work experience and leadership ability.

Here's a link to the Shanghai MBA (http://www.hult.edu/mba-program/campuses/shanghai) that is offered, and Hult's MBA program in Duabi (http://www.hult.edu/mba-program/campuses/dubai) as well. Best of luck!

Hi again,

Just wanted to clarify something from my last post. Hult offers a one-year MBA program with only one module in Shanghai--it's not an entire year-long program. The one year programs are offered at the Dubai, Boston and London campuses, in which six weeks of electives can be taken in Shanghai through a Global Rotation Program. Sorry, perhaps that's not exactly what you're looking for after all!
