Hello,
I m Rohan, I have offer letters from dbs Ireland and university of Cardiff I m confused!! It's hard for me to choose and I need to move in Jan 2016!! It would be great if u could help me

Tke a look at Which MSc's are better than pre-experience 'Freshers' MBAs? www.find-mba.com/board/22783
and Why freshers' MBAs are worse than MiM degrees from better schools http://www.find-mba.com/board/38133

I don't see why anyone would pick DBS over Cardiff, but why take a freshers MBA when you could pay less for an MSc with better students at a better school.

The problem is i have to stick with MBA i dnt want to do an MSc, MBA would teach me alot about management and business, which Msc would not focus on!!! can u please tell me which would be the best option for me to do an fresher MBA, i m already late i need to file an application ASAP

An MSc in management from a good school would teach you much more than any Freshers' MBA. These schools: http://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/masters-in-management-2015 will give you a better education, better classmates and better connections to employers than any freshers MBA. Read the articles I liked to in my earlier post.

Yes, unless you have at least three or so years of work experience, the only "MBA" programs you'll be able to get into are MBAs in name only - and most likely from unaccredited business schools. These, in my opinion, would be a waste of time and money.

Instead, look for masters in management programs from accredited business schools. Check out the masters in management ranking from the FT.

But if you're aiming for January 2016 to start, this might be difficult, since it's really only a few months before January 2016. I know that business schools like Kingston, RGU, and Brunel have MSc programs that have January starts, but you'll have to ask these schools if they're actually still accepting applications, since your time frame is so tight.

In the end, though, you'd probably be better of waiting for September 2016 and trying to get into a ranked program.
