Hi there,
What are your thoughts on skipping the Master's Degree if the full-time offer from MBB is received, and going later for MBA?
I am a bachelor's graduate (economics), currently gap year, ahead of two internships with MBB this year. Initially, I was planning to go for a master's degree (primarily of two reasons (i) since the university where I did my bachelor's even if the top one in my country, was not tier 1 in the EU, (ii) to enhance my finance knowledge (the idea of future exit to VC/PE). However, I started thinking of skipping the master's degree and later pursuing tier 1 MBA (assuming that I will perform well).
If you ask me now what I prefer - studying or working - hard to say, as I analyzed both scenarios - from my perspective both options have pros and cons.
That's why - what are your thoughts on this? What scenario could give better perspectives? I have even seen ppl doing a break (after 1/ 2 years) at MBB and going for a pure Master's Degree (instead of MBA).
Thanks in advance!
