<p>Do you think this is a good idea? My final goal is MBA in a top Business school and I am wondering what my undergraduate major should be ?I know the most popular ones are Mathematics,Economics, and Business administration, but what about International relations ?
I think this can be very useful when comes to international business ?</p>
<p>This is fine, as long as you take some relevant economics/business courses as well. While those majors may not necessarily inhibit you from being admitted to an MBA program, it may inhibit you from getting needed work experience. Employers are often turned off from undergraduate applicants who have those majors when they have undergraduates majoring in accounting and management to choose from (to name a couple). </p>
<p>Is it possible? Yes. Might it be difficult? Also, yes.</p>
<p>Sure, I am going to take some business/math courses as well.But is it mandatory to work in the finance sphere in order to get into MBA program ?</p>
<p>Absolutely not.</p>
<p>I asked because you had said that I need math/business courses in order to get the ‘‘needed’’ work experience and I figured it would be harder to get into MBA program if I don`t have any work experience in the financial sphere</p>
<p>You’re presuming all MBAs must have come from “the financial sphere”–a dubious proposition, to say the least.</p>
