hi,
I completed a MBA (Gen Mgmt) program 3 yrs back. Have a operations/general management profile. I am looking at a career in corporate finance / M&A .
As not many good MBA programs are willing to accept students with prior MBA, that door seems to be closed. Some programs which do accept such students expect min 5/6 yrs of exceptional career growth. I am not willing to hang on till then. Then there is an issue of repeating courses.
Also, I am 28 n dont wanna stick around in an industry i dont particularly like. So there's a kind of urgency in looking for alternatives.
1. Given these facts how does a MS Finance program sound ?
Well i do understand that in the normal scheme of things one wud do a MS first and then an MBA. But mine is an exceptional case of maybe poor career planning !!
Also.
2. How is the career growth of MS Finance grads vis a vis MBA grads ?
In my case i think i can show both industry/general management skills and financial accumen after completing the MS Finance program. Will that make a differance?
Do throw in your ideas. However brutal they might me

Just curious-
Presumably you will apply to positions in finance after you receive your MS Fin. Why not just apply directly to these positions?
Stated another way, what opportunities/skills/connections do you hope to obtain through the MS Finance that you could not obtain otherwise?

I have applied for these positions but dont seem to be making much headway, primarily because of my experience. I have a general management profile so co's r reluctant to try me for a modeling/research/banking profile. Moreover i did not take many finance courses in college. so maybe i am not very well suited technicaly.
So going back to college i wanna pickup -
opportunities - a position in corporate fin / open to other profiles (trading , research ) as well
skills - modeling / valuation/financing/ financial analysis of Mergers & restructuring etc.
connections - mainly the brand of the college which affords me the career of my choice.
