Question (1) Am contemplating between part time MBA or Online MBA. With now the world is in global pandemic, I think it makes sense to go for online MBA, which relatively have a lower rate compared its equivalent. But when I asked my friend who had done MBA 15 years ago, he commented the best part of a MBA program if ever, is the face to face experience with the cohort. Am I missing out if I sign up for online mba?

Question (2) would you recommend a face to face MBA of Nottingham (in Malaysia for my case) , or an online MBA with prestigious school that is 3 times more expensive?

Appreciate your sharing!

Focus on your goals, not the cost. Prestige is very national, since it aligns with where the alumni are. See: https://find-mba.com/mba-faq/which-kind-of-mba-program-is-right-for-me

And although Online programs are extremely robust today, they still cater to a different kind of student (those who don't necessarily want to make a big career jump, like to a new country.) These kinds of students (or basically any who need strong career support) will be much better off studying face-to-face in the country where they want to work. 

Depending upon the current scenario all around the world the best option would be to go for online MBA. 2 of my friends applied for regular MBA but because of the pandemic their lectures are happening online. So the best option is to apply for Online or Distance MBA. You can apply to any college in India from SimpliDistance education portal. 

If you must promote your business here, please try to address the questions. This thread is not about Indian distance learning MBAs so your post creates no value and just costs people time.
