Are there any differences between MBA and JD-MBA business core courses content and electives?

Hi! I’m interested in JD-MBA but I’m not sure if I will learn the same about business (finance concentration) as in the MBA.
Are there less business subjects taught in the JD-MBA?

It will the the same to have a JD-MBA or MBA to break into IB?

Thanks a lot!

JD will teach you totally different things than the MBA. If you never want to practice law the JD portion would be a waste. Just my opinion.
