Two masters degrees before mba?

If I have a liberal arts degree from a top 20 school with a 3.7+ GPA, and a masters in finance and a masters of accounting with work experience in Big 4 TAS. What are my chances of a top 5 MBA program with good gmat scores if I am 30?

 

I think that you're asking the wrong question mate.

Why are you pursuing an MBA? Do you think a degree will turn your life around and turn you into a white collar rockstar?

You're 30 years old, hold two graduate degrees, and have built up some work experience. Just my two cents, but I think you need to start focusing on building a career rather than building up a collection of degrees (which is also kind of expensive).

Normally, I wouldn't say this, but I think this may be appropriate for you - Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg only hold high school diplomas!
