Hello Dinesh18021991,

Hope this finds you well.

Your decision should depend on your reason for pursuing a part-time MBA and where you are in terms of your career.

If you have under 10 years of work experience and do not mind being out of a job for an year or so, a full-time MBA might just be worth it; but, really, your decision will depend on why you applied for the part-time MBA in the first place. :)

All the best!

Hey, Dinesh18021991

Whether investing in a part-time MBA at NUS is the right choice depends on your career goals, financial situation, and your readiness for the commitment it requires. Take your time to consider these factors carefully.

I had helped an applicant for the part time NUS MBA some time ago- he didn't want to change his company immediately, but was looking at growth within the same company. So, it really depends on what your reasons for getting an MBA are - what kind of career shift are you seeking after an MBA? Does it need the resources of a full-time MBA, more specifically, the internship? If you don't want a huge career change, you could probably get by with a part time MBA. Consider the positive side- you will be earning + getting a degree.

Your designation sounds like you are pretty senior in your role- so you will also want to consider what a part-time versus full-time MBA class looks like and do which one do you see yourself fitting in?
