发帖数: 87 | 1 I don't think a "best" concentration exists. It all depends on where your
strengths lie... after all, an MBA degree is supposed to give you the
management background to perform in an environment that suits your
personality, and one in which you can maximize your opportunity to excel. | l********e
发帖数: 413 | 2 right. It's not a degree to just help you land your first job. Otherwise,
you can go to some vocational program. MBA education is to teach you to how
to think and develop your problem-solving skills for your whole career.
People just put too much emphasis on short-term benefit. We should ask
ourselves what we want to become 10 years later? What role do I want to play
in an organization, or more abstract, in the society? Concentration doesn't
matter at all in long term, even not in short term

发帖数: 9 | 3 For most people,sadly, MBA is used as a way to land a dream job in Investment
banking or Management consulting. Believe it or not, business is a vocational
school, though some people prefer to call it professional school. MBA
education is not fundumentally different from those subject of hard science.
Maybe a blend of soft and hard-core quantitative subjects.
If you are a person knows what do you want to do ten years from now. You
really don't need a MBA. 85% of bschool students have no clue wh

I wonder why people still keep asking such questions as" Is this major easy to
get a job" after internet bubble busted.
CS was so hot before, everyone could get an offer before. So what? you might
lose ur job 2 years later. Maybe you are lucky and keep your position, then?
I saw so many around 40-year-old software engineers , they are still software
engineers, or senior engineers. And they don't like their jobs. Jobs to them
are just routines and kill their times.
It's true that m

发帖数: 87 | 5 hehe, I am glad to see that there are people on this board who see things from
more than a single perspective.
Really, having a well-rounded set of skills will allow you to be ready for
fluctuations in the job market that may arise from time to time, and prepare
yourself so you can take advantage of better opportunities.

发帖数: 87 | 6 I think what you've said is true for your situation, and as you said, it is
"your two cents."
Too often we take for granted that own assumptions apply to the overall
population.
Therefore it is perhaps necessary to remind you that not everyone here is a
foreigner, and while it is true that a large portion of the readers on this
bbs are of that category, it is not fair to assume that every reader fits into
that category.
After all, it's our different and unique experiences that add value to this | c********n
发帖数: 1 | 7 Don't get mad, xinhongying :). Personally I think your suggestions have been
very helpful for me. Although I haven't heard from the school I applied and I
don't have much confidence either, I may consider take two majors if I were
admitted just like what you said. MBA has different meaning for everyone, for
me, it's an opportunity to explore my interests and increase the possibility
to locate a job.

发帖数: 335 | 8 This is a very bad question. You should ask which concentration iin MBA is
best for your personality and past experience.
I saw a great variety in the personalities and characters among Chinese MBA
students, and that's the decisive element in job hunting. Normally, the more
open, the more aggressive, the more sophisticated, the better for MBAs. If you
pocess these plus good language capabiilty (especially oral), it does not
matter what your concentration is.
At last, communication skill is a mus
