School advise

Hi there, I have a no name mba which I did part time and finished a year ago. GMAT 680. How can I best improve my profile?

I have extensive work experience in management for a large software company and consulting company.

Got into a doctorate program at a mid tier university. Was wondering if it's worth it?
Should I do something like a ms in marketing at a top tier?
Any advise as I'm not going to repeat the mba but am wondering if a doctorate is overkill..

 

The answer is yes if you want to teach. If you're simply looking for a job then the monetary cost, effort, and most importantly time would not be worth it.

To reiterate the above it's definitely all about what you want to be doing 5 years from now.

Listen, here's the thing. If you can't spot the sucker in the first half hour at the table, then you are the sucker.
