Masters in Finance to Rebrand -> Will this help my MBA chances later?
Hey everyone.
I'm in my last year at a top school in Canada (think Queens/Toronto/McGill), graduating with a B.Eng in Electrical Engineering with roughly a 3.5 GPA. I've only recently (past 1-2 years) decided that I want to ditch engineering and pursue a field such as IB/Consulting, unfortunately this was too much of a late start to clinch an offer before my undergraduate career ended (had several super days).
I'm heavily considering doing a 1 year Masters in Finance at my current school as I'll be able to recruit again out of the same channels I previously failed at, this time with more experience and a new brand. I have some finance experience working for a small PE firm this past summer.
My main question is will this help or hinder my chances at applying for an MBA later on? I plan on crushing the courses and getting a 3.8 + GPA, as well as an offer in IB/Consulting (hopefully). I have just read a lot that rebranding through a MMF/MsF makes getting an MBA later slightly redundant. If anyone has been through similar experiences please let me know I am eager to hear about your path and what paid off/what didn't.
Cheers
