UCD vs SKEMA

  • Posted by - rishabhnagaichkota@gmail.com - on 12 December 2014 - 1:47pm

    Hello!!

    I've recently received offers from UCD Smurfit (MSc Management) and SKEMA business School (MSc International Business). I'm finding it difficult to decide which one to go for. I have my GRE on 16th and am planning to apply for MIM in IE, LBS and ESMT thereafter.
    But for the time being I need to confirm either UCD or SKEMA, else I end up losing both. Can you recommend one, considering the job market for both the courses?

    I am an Environmental Engineer by profession. Currently working in Coal india Ltd.
    Thanking you in anticipation.

    Regards,
    Rishabh nagaich

      Hi there,

      congrats for the offers from UCD and Skema. Now you have to find out which school (also including the potential other schools you intend to apply for) increases your chances to achieve your career goals.

      For this you need a methodology on how to analyze these programs and match them with your future goals. I describe this methodology in my MIM eBook. Particularly, I recommend you to read thoroughy chapters 6-9 and the Practical Tips section.

      Best wishes
      Thomas
