Dear GMAT club members:
I am planning to apply next year R1. Bit about my profile. Currently in a 2 year Masters (Masters in International Economics and Finance) program in Boston (Brandeis University). Engineer by undergrad from India. In between these two degrees, I worked for two years at a F500 car manufacturing company. My ultimate goal is to be Associate in BB Investment bank. I had planned to work my ass off at Brandeis to get there (knew that would an uphill task), and plan B was to apply again for top 5/10 MBA. For this specific reason I did not apply to MBA directly, as I had thought it would be difficult to get into Booth/Wharton directly & also costly (Brandeis is cheap). So last month I decided to stop my efforts to search BB IB job for this season and focus towards my MBA application. So when I start MBA in Fall 2016 I will be 5 years out of my undergrad with 3 years of experience. I am currently interning at an Asset Management firm and they have offered full time.
So my biggest hurdle would be to justify to ad-com the need for MBA now. Direct line of attack is both are different degrees. I am trying to give it angle, that my choice of Brandeis MA was more for satisfying my academic curiosity of finance and economics. I did not get exposure to these subjects during engineering and the job. Now that I have broader understanding of businesses, I want to be the one adding value to businesses. Its very getting very tricky.
Can you guys/admission consultants suggest few spins to this story? Any thought is welcome.

Thanks for your reply.
Nope, I will work for a year after this masters. I am interviewing for full time at few places. I already have oral offer from my current internship employer. I will graduate from my MA in May 2015 and I had graduated from my undergrad in 2011. I want to do MBA from Sep 2016 to May 2018.
