Getting a masters then MBA??

I'm wondering if a masters program, think MF/MSRE (non-MBA), can help you in the MBA process. 

My situation is that I went to a decent undergrad (top 20), but got a pretty low GPA ~3.1. I was recently admitted to Georgetown for their MF program. I'd love to get my MBA but only from a top program.

My question is if I did well at Georgetown, would that give me any boost in the MBA application process? I know they'll still look at ug gpa, but was just curious.

Thanks.

If you would like to one day have your own real estate then don’t get a masters to get a masters.

Only two sources I trust, Glenn Beck and singing woodland creatures.
