Hi there,

I also got an unconditional offer for Birmingham MBA. Although I think Birmingham MBA is sound investment I found one disadvantages for myself: majorly international business orientation of its MBA. Please note that that can be advantage for someone alse.

Regards,

Well..
1. Birmingham has the city advantage as compared to Bradford
2. Overall rankings Bradford has a slight edge over Birmingham
3. Course of Birmingham MBA is more focused on finance. Bradford you have more electives I suppose...
4.Class size for both seem to be large in number ,Bradford populated with a lot of pakistani's...

I hope I did not confuse you further...
You can add your comparison points further....

Hi,

the possible questions will probably be related to your future professional and perhaps personal aims. Both in relation to Birmingham MBA. For example: Where do you see yourself in 3 years and how can Birmingham MBA helps you to achieve that or why Birmingham MBA and not ...MBA or why do you think you need MBA now and not in two years or what are your menegerial experiences till now, etc.

Good luck.
