I am in a small class of 37 peers and we really interact well enjoying the richness and diversity of cultures. Most of us in the class are already getting offers for jobs when we have not even started our second year yet, meaning that even graduating from a small school an employer out there would definately need your services if you are well baked. Even though the school you finished your MBA says a lot but you have to consider and balance the various factors involved, like financing the MBA and knowing the size of your budget, selecting the country and the enviroment, fulltime or partime program and so on. With a background in law, I can now understand what economists, accountants and finance experts do and understand because of the MBA. The balance is specific to each case.Good luck on your pursuit but I can tell you that the MBA is worth it anyday!!! Sir,

But in terms of careers services that is a different matter. I would expect that larger schools see many more recruiters pass through their doors – It's a simple numbers game for them.
