Hi shuaib!

i personally dont know much abt islamabad or rawalpindi and insititues there....but i can tell u one thing...if ure planning to go for MBA finance...AND if sumhow u can manage to get into LUMS or IBA u shud....cos anyways MBA profession has saturated like anyhting therefore employers hire graduates from only these 2 institutes, u can see the proof by opening job advertisers...they ask for graduates SPECIFICALLY...mark my words...SPECIFICALLY from these 2 unis...or well repured unis from abroad...so u know make ure decision with considering all ure options and may God be wid you!

My friends in LUMS tell me that MBA from LUMS isn't that good, despite its BSc having great value in Pakistan.

Its true that your communication skills, confidence and personality count A LOT... And obviously there's another thing in Pakistan that counts more than anything... PR !!

I just told you what my friends told me... So I guess MBA from IBA would be better than doing it from LUMS although there's no doubt that BSc from LUMS is far more welcomed in our market than from any other place.

MSK,

Recently I met a very successful London Financier who, after asking him about his background, said that he did his MBA - Finance from IBA, prior to going to Harvard (USA) for another MBA - Finance, though, he said that the core concepts at both programmes were similar but just the prestige of Harvard, being world's leading B-School, attracted him to take such step.

So, if you have the choice between LUMS and IBA, as Sumaaan also said, consider IBA very seriously. You would find IBA alumni network of much more value, in terms of PR/Contacts, than any other B-School in Pakistan.

Good luck with your career endeavours.

Shuaib,

Also consider the Alumni and networking opportunities. From this aspect IBA has a wider spread
