Is it worth the move?


MimoDL

Dear all,
I joined Leicester's MBA DL programme last november. I completed the first module of foundations of knowledge. That was a very good start, coming from an IT background. It's about critical thinking and a kick-start into MBA. I'm in my second module now, the organizational behaviour.

I attend the workshops in dubai conducted by their agent, Stafford Associates. The support is great but you feel they are after your money. I actually got the acceptance the second day I applied. After I started the OB module, I now feel I did a bad choice. The workshop is totally useless. I felt like I'm in a spoon-feeding session (can just be read in textbook).
I applied to Durham's DL MBA after I paid two installments. I know that is a loss (trying to check if I can get a partial refund). However, I think transferring now is better than later. Afterall, it's a once in a life time thing. Please help me here. Is Durham worth the move? I know it's triple accredited and better ranking, but after paying is the programme worth the move??

Regards

Durham will be much better and Manchester, Cass and London business schools (which have locations in Dubai) are better still.

I got a similar vibe from Leicester. They kept calling me. I felt I was being rushed into making a decision to join.

Not every top B-School is good in offering MBA in DL mode. Its very important to speak to students who have completed their MBA in DL mode with these B-School. Since you are planning to switch, therefore i would strongly recommend you to do a great research,
