MBA or Work first?

Arashi — Sat, 04 Feb 2017 22:37:02 +0800

Hi guys, I'm in a dilemma. Here's the situation:

I'll be completing my degree in business management soon and my university (local private uni) is offering discounts to students who continues onto their MBA course and a further discount based on my CGPA. The total cost for the MBA should be RM10K (normal price should be about RM40-50K) and another 1 year of study.

However, I'm starting to lose interest in studying especially ever since I have gone for my internship. I feel like I just want to start working and start earning. At the same time, if I don't get it now, I don't think I will have to drive or motivation to study MBA on a part-time basis in the future, it's gonna be really hectic after a long day of work, isn't it?

Is it worth it to get an MBA from a university that is not well-known for it's MBA?
I understand that Masters will have no value for me at this moment as I have no work experience but it will save me the hassle in the future as I will have a Masters qualification in the future and it can just be sort of like 'activated' when I need it, right?

So my choice is either:
A) Take the discount and settle for an MBA from local private uni and continue for another year
B) Start working and take it part-time in the future from a better uni

And..my interests are in startups and consulting. I am thinking of joining Accenture if I were to skip the masters for now.

Please advise, thanks!

Hi guys, I'm aspired to be a successful entrepreneur but I'm not sure what I want to major in because I have interest in business administration,marketing and a little bit of finance. So I was wondering what's the difference between diploma in business studies, business administration, business management and retail management and will all these allow me to study any business major? What university is a popular choice for business students? Is Berjaya UCH a bad choice? TQ.

Can't decide classical guitar or acoustic guitar.

Hi, I'm a beginner and I've been wanting to learn playing a guitar for quite some time but I no idea what kind of guitar or what guitar to go for hope you guys can help me out. I don't know whether should I go for classical or acoustic guitar. I like J-pop so I'm planning to play electric guitar after I get good. So learning which would benefit me more when I transition onto electric guitar? Also, I'm a lefty. I don't know whether should I straight get a left-handed guitar or a cheap right-handed one. But then, I'm afraid I might lose interest halfway through. So what's your opinions guys?

Edit: By right handed guitar I meant restringing it for a left handed.
