Hi ,
This is Joe with you. I work in Dubai. I am from India . Sir, I would like to know about the Ashridge MBA. How good is its post MBA Job scenario.I would like to live and work in UK after my MBA. I have a GMAT score of 560 with 7 years work ex as Group IT Manager in Dubai.
Kindly suggest whether i should join the ashridge mba programme this september or retake my gmat and apply to unis like HEC AND ERASMUS which have a jan intake.
Kindly also provide your opinion about the cass emba in dubai. Does it have the same panache as the full time course in uk?

Your GMAT is too low for Erasmus or HEC and I think you might be too young for Ashridge. Search the discussion board for posts about Ashridge. I suggest you improve your GMAT and apply for September next year elsewhere.

They are all great programmes.

The generic differences apply between full-time versus executive programmes.

If you can afford it, take the full-time option if you want to change industry, function or country.

Hi Joe,

My name is Dan and I work for the Ashridge MBA department. I saw your questions so I hope you don?t mind me chipping in!

I would like to know about the Ashridge MBA. How good is its post MBA Job scenario. I would like to live and work in UK after my MBA.


To answer this I would say that while the economic climate is a challenge - companies are still hiring MBAs (our stats can be found on our website: http://www.ashridge.org.uk/Website/Content.nsf/wDEG/Ashridge+MBA+-+Placement+data?opendocument ).

However the main things to consider are your visa requirements to work after study - proper research needs to be done to make sure that this is the route for you.

I have a GMAT score of 560 with 7 years work ex as Group IT Manager in Dubai.


We accept GMAT scores of 550+ so this will not be an issue and you meet our minimum work experience requirement of 5 years.

However, the main thing we look for in candidates is what they can bring to the group as a whole and what insights they can bring to an MBA classroom to enrich the experience of the other students.

We have had many IT managers on the course who provide great insights into the industry for the group and would be happy to talk further with you. DM me or contact us through our website if you would like to talk further.
