I'm about to apply to business schools, and was just curious to see where people think the jobs will be after the two years it would take to complete a program. Will this downturn be over? Should I look at programs that focus on consulting, health care administration, investment banking, or what? I'm at a crossroads, and am not sure what to do.
Where will the jobs be?

IMO the best bet is Asia(in this i mean mainly china), south America(mainly Brazil - see here:http://www.find-mba.com/article/362/mba-programs-in-emerging-markets-brazil) and maybe also eastern Europe.
as for the economical situation - one can't really know, but i have a feeling that in two years everything would be back to normal(at least in the first and second world countries).
as for the focus - a safe bet would be energy and corporate social responsibility. read these:
