Why "Fullbright OR MBA"? Isn't Fullbright a scholarship scheme supporting foreign students in the US (including MBA students). I don't get it.

You are right, Fulbright allows MBA after three years of experience but I have just one year of experience. You know human nature- anxious and hasty so my refined question becomes like this.
1. Should I wait for three years and apply for Fulbright MBA, mean while earn some money and get experience.

2. Should I apply right now for Fulbright Msc. (would this take me off the track, I'm not aware whether these Msc take you to teaching and research work or practical work and I have no interest in research and teaching)

I think you should wait 2 years more, and then go for an MBA. MBA programs are more about practical business, and you stated you are not really interested in research, so i presume you want a more practical, less scientific program. i also think an MBA program has better job prospects. i think you will really benefit from having some more experience before taking a business degree(both MBA and Msc) - One learns better that way.

just my 2 cents,

O.
