what do you think about MBA MBA, think

MBA is so popular right now, but they are aslo not safe from layoff as well.

Furthermore, they ususally don't have concentrations (some do, but it's called MBA in science).  

so for spending that much money and time, do you think MBA worth the price?

I think more degrees don't hurt, it simply makes you more "employable" on resume. Just like today, a bachalor is pretty much a prerequisite for employers as they are everywhere.

I will be taking MBA within a few years because I want to move up into executive levels eventually. Without MBA, it is just very tough (unless you are the boss).

Although an MBA degree is no guarantee for you to be spared from being layoff, but it gives you a better fighting chance, should you get layoff, to get the next job.

Actually money is the least of your problem, as you can find scholarship or apply for a loan, time is a bigger factor whether you can afford it or not.

I think that's where my friend did hers when she moved back.

I have not decided which sector of MBA I want to be in because the tuition fee is very expensive, as I cannot afford it for now.

However, I realize that most of the Asian university have a low ranking in the MBA list.

Don't worry about tuition, if you are good, it is easy to get grant once you get into the program.
