读了硕士还能申请MBA吗

如题 谢谢大家
不知道学校会不会很奇怪已经是硕士了，并且是商科的（msc）还来申请mba，会不会是一个蛮大的劣势

Hey there—thanks for the comments!  Just one clarification though—some masters programs are somewhat similar in nature to MBAs.  So masters in finance, management, even production etc.  We tell all our clients that if there appears to be ANY overlap between the prospective MBA and the old degree, then it is of course worthwhile to do an optional essay.  We received this information from a woman who used to work for us, who was a former Dean of Admissions at a top-30 school.  The trick is whether or not there is overlap—if there is, we MUST address it in the app.  If the masters is in astrophysics (or something with NO relevance to business) then there would be no need to address it.  Hope this helps, and let me know if we can be of any further help to you my friend!

There's no need to explain in an optional essay why you would get an MBA degree after a non-MBA masters or even a Phd degree. Trust me, it's very common, especially for Chinese and Indian applicants, to apply for an MBA with a non-MBA masters.

Jon is right on spot though when he says that you need more explanation for getting a 2nd MBA. In fact, a lot of schools state clearly that you will not be eligible to apply to their programs after you've acquired an MBA. Unfortunately, a lot of Asian Universities label most of their 商科 masters degrees as MBAs even though, in essence, they are very different compared to typical top MBA programs.

Hey there!  Happy to answer this question for ya.  Yes, it may be seen as a bit strange that you would get an MBA after getting a masters degree—especially if there is a clear business angle to your masters.  BUT!  It is possible to do, for sure.  In fact, it is even possible to apply to the US for an MBA if you already have an MBA from ANOTHER school!  It is just hard to explain.  This is a perfect example of why MBA applications give you an Optional Essay.  In your optional essay, you will have the chance to explain your reasons for a second MBA, or even an MBA after a masters degree.  Use the Optional Essay here, and you should be just fine.  We do it countless times every year.  Hope this helps, and good luck!
