    Initially I thought of gaining a Masters from UoL (UCL) and then going for a good MBA, my application would look much better in that case,
    However now I’m thinking to go straight for an MBA, there is so much competition everywhere around. I am nearing 30 now, I have the work exp, Bachelors degree and a prof qualification, with a decent GMAT score I think a straight route to MBA is the right choice..

    any suggestions from all working backgrounds and experience.. ? thanks..

    I think it depends on the end goal you would like to reach here. UCL on your cv is definitely a great thing to have. MBA is a lot more general and broad so would be great if you want to become a GM or CEO or CFO too. ACCA Global MBA with OBU is a good route to take. I’d say, they’re both at master’s degree, so I’d say either is fine..one may be more preferable than the other depending on the job, company, and environment.
