MBA

I've decided to go back to school. Not full-time, but I am looking to obtain my MBA.
I'm looking at three different executive MBA programs in Atlanta. An executive MBA is no different from an MBA (just as expensive, if not more); the difference is in the route you take to get one. Executive MBAs are obtained over a shortened period of time (usually 1.5 years) and classes are at nights on Fridays and all day Saturday. I have been researching programs and I really like Georgia Tech's Global Executive MBA program which is all the things I mentioned plus some study abroad (1 or 2 weeks in Asia and then 1 or 2 weeks in Latin America).

the first step is to take the GMAT. this scares me because i've never been good at standardized tests. i'm not worried about the qualitative, but the quantitative. :( i am planning on taking the test in March. I will be studying and attending open houses at Emory, GT and GSU until then. Early admissions for all three of these school is in April and the final deadlines are in June.

It is truly a new year for me coming up.
wish me luck.
:)
