Hi everyone,I'm an international student studied Economics.These schools are affordable for me.I'm about to make a decision.My plan is to work after MBA in USA.Which one is better for you guys.

Take a look at How to use LinkedIn to find the best school www.find-mba.com/board/33571

Shortcut to find the best US MBA www.find-mba.com/board/36065

Generically, given that Buffalo is ranked in Businessweek and Manderson is not, Buffalo is the better choice for most students. However, this will depend on your career goals. Manderson has excellent placements in the manufacturing field, for instance, so if you had interest in this, or in working for one of the school's primary recruiters (Mercedes Benz), then that would change things.

But for more typical post-MBA career roles (finance/consulting/etc.) - SUNY is probably the better choice.

What about University of Missouri(Columbia).

What are your career goals? These are all very different schools in very different locations.

Hi mba hipster.I have one year work experience and 2.50 GPA. I want to work in USA after MBA.Maybe marketing firms..

Cheers

I think you'd be a hard sell at those schools, given your low GPA and low work experience. Missouri tends to admit students with 2 years of work experience, and indeed, you may have close to 2 years of experience by matriculation but the average GPA of the class tends to be in the 3.5.

Given that average GPA, they'll be looking for other qualities that can help offset their concerns about your academic performance. More work experience would help, as would extensive volunteer work or other outside leadership experience. Your GMAT score would be especially critical because if you could score strongly on the GMAT, this would help them see that you're ready to back to school.

The average GMAT is in the 650 range at Manderson, for instance, so if you scored in the 700 range this would help a lot.

Thank you for your reply.That helped me a lot for my situation.I will start to study for GMAT exam.My question is which school is better for management or marketing.Especially when you think about job placement and graduation salary

Cheers
