I don't think that a part-time course is a very effective way to change career, but the choise here would be about your target geography: MIT for the Americas; Insead for EMEA; Insead-Tsinghua for Asia-Pacific.

But why those schools?

Most top EMBA programs will expect a GMAT and/or ten years or more of work experience. You are probably not eligible for the EMBA at Insead or MIT. With seven years work experience, you are more suited for a full-time MBA. Take an MBA in the country where you want to study.

PS I just want to add that it's a very smart idea to work with an English tutor. Many applicants focus on the quant part, but I normally see test results were the verbal reasoning score is lower and that's the easiest place for most students to make a big improvement, just by improving your English.

But, to be clear, if you want to move country then you'll need to perfect your English - not only improve it for tests, but your written English would need to be much better than it is here. If you can afford it, there are some pre-masters courses taught by business schools in English-speaking countries which combine English courses and business courses. They would allow you to get even higher GMAT scores and to get into even better MBA programmes with better international mobility. Take a look at these examples:

- http://www.shu.ac.uk/prospectus/course/326/
- https://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/elt/foundation/premasters/

... or you can just get a GMAT book and focus on your weaknesses. There's the official guide, and all the big prep players (Manhattan, Kaplan, etc.) all sell books. It's really worth it to get the best GMAT score you can.

you have posted a lot of questions in various forms regarding Executive MBA, Master of Finance, MBA in Finance.

I think you must decide which program you want to pursue and where?
Most countries outside of Pakistan will require you to have good command over English in all formats. Most importantly in your oral communications, this skill alone will prove to be deal breaker in soliciting interviews and networking.

Even if you decide not to improve your verbal score in GMAT, take or retake GMAT; I would suggest joining an English speaking course in British Council (or what's available in your city near you)

Graduate Education is a major step in most of our lives. I would suggest you approach it sincerely. Plan for it, start saving money towards it. Get additional certifications like CFA, CPA etc. If Finance / Accounting is what you want to do. Think about what skill sets you want to learn, what skills do recruiters require? What skill sets do you lack presently? Focus on skill development.

Good salary, career growth, immigration etc. are byproducts of skills that are gained during graduate education and applied to the job. You would need a good command of English to demonstrate and convince recruiters that you have the ability to do the job, and that you have made extra efforts by learning English.

All the Chinese students in my class but one, went back to China because they could not land a job in US. Reason? Their communication skills (mainly oral) were not to the point. Let me remind you that they had an excellent GMAT score. But GMAT will only get you in the B school. English (or any other language skill) would stay with you for your life.

P.S - Think about your Master's as place to gain skills and not an immigration tool to move out of Pakistan. This would also help you write coherent essays during your application.

Good luck!

That's great advice, especially the part about taking English classes - if you're weak in verbal that will probably help your GMAT score quite a bit.
