Hi guys,
I´m 34, 10 years work experience in the same company(construction). I´ve studied to get better at GMAT score, but I don´t feel having enough time to reach it, because I want to enroll in a MBA program in 2020 class. In addition I was accepted by HULT already, however I´d like to try other schools too, those among top 40 in US and CA (US students seems to get better post mba salaries then either CA or UK). There are few options of full-time programs with GMAT waiver for who has large work experience or company sponsor, such as GEMBA from Foster, some from CA, Warwich in UK...
In summary, my main goal is to get a valuable knowledge(content) and degree which provide me better chances to be recognized worldwide, hence to be able to get nice Jobs anywhere, even in US. I suppose the Full-time 2years programs are the best for what I want, however I don´t think that I`ll get enough GMAT score until deadlines. So, despite it, what do you think is the best choice in my case? Choose Foster full-time GEMBA, Full-time dual degree from Hult, full-time program from Warwick or something else?
I can´t even understand what really differs from a MBA full-time 1y ( EMBA, GEMBA or Full-time 1y program Goizueta) to a 2y traditional program. What does really differ in content between them? Do Employees have preference for candidates who comes from 2y programs?
Thank you.

Welcome to GMAT Club! It's been exactly a year since you have joined 
I would be cautious about HULT and any school that has a GMAT waiver as there is a tendency to admit a variety of people who then detract from your learning in the classroom. Search around for HULT reviews, including controvercial posts like these: https://gmatclub.com/forum/avoid-hult-121715.html
The latest reviews seem to be largely positive https://gmatclub.com/reviews/business_school/hult-46 though HULT is a for profit MBA program (most others are educational institutions) so keep that in mind.
Before you pay $100K for an MBA, would encourage you to research more and understand the differences in the programs and primarily opportunities that they afford one. I would suggest reaching out to current students, and admissions teams to learn more. Note that nobody will badmouth their own program so take some of the comments with a grain of salt.
Very very very few programs will take a 40yr applicant into a FT program but some of the international may/will. The main issue you will run into is that these programs will not be able to help you with recruiting so you will be doing that largely on your own. Frankly at this point in time being 40, most of your recruiting at FEMBA, EMBA, or else will be on your own. Keep that in mind.
