Hi experts!!
My name is Pritha, a computer science engineer and currently undergoing M.Tech degree in Operations Research (final semester), need your advise to decide which program and schools to apply to. My undergrad GPA is 8.08 out 10 from a private college (No IIT). Now doing M.tech from NIT, WB. Had passed out in midst of recession fears so went instead for M.Tech which didn't require a loan. Currently I have a job at IBM Global to be joined after June.
My queries are:
1. Considering my profile, should I go for Masters in Management over MBA? What are the career prospects? N which schools to apply for? I need a job enough to repay the loan.
2. Else I can join IBM and work there for 2-3 years and then either join ISB for executive MBA or apply for MBA in the US?
3. Last option but most undesirable..... I can go for Ph.D in the IIMs.....
Please suggest me what to do..... Thnx in advance.

Honestly would just wait a bit. An MBA is a generally more desirable degree and for that you will need experience. Good job on the GMAT!

Thnx Jim for your suggestion. But someone told me that US colleges won't consider IT experience in a company like IBM as valuable enough..... But right now that's the only option for me.... any light on that?
