I'll look into it, for sure.

what is a masters in engineering management, and where did you get that?

Doesn't Auburn's online program waive the GMAT/GRE? I wouldn't do a program like that.
You can find a lot of good info on the OT, but you have to extract it from misinformation like this.

Good combo

Being in engineering, how important would you say it is to network directly with classmates in a traditional MBA setting as opposed to networking with engineering professionals while pursuing an online MBA from a solid name program?

I would recommend going to LSU's Professional MBA Program. When I went through the program about 1/3 of the class members were engineers working for chemical manufacturing facilities.
Ten years later the relationships and friendships that I developed have proven to very valuable for my career path.
In my opinion the lack of networking opportunities is a major negative of a online program.

700 will get you into Kenan-Flagler full time without trouble. 730 gets you into most Top 10 programs in the country and UNC is more like #25.

No doubt. If you have a great job and don't want to change careers, then PMBA programs can be a great alternative.
Two great examples are Booth and Kellogg. You can get in with a ~650 versus a 720 for the full time program. The part time programs share classes with the full times if you can make the schedule work. I looked at those programs really hard but couldn't justify flying to Chicago every week for two+ years.

What did admissions workers say about gpa factoring in? I have a low gpa, but my practice GMATs have been very high

What if you have a low gpa (2.7-2.8ish) with a high GMAT (700+)?

If they'll pay for it, do it.

whats the best MBA route if you have horrible undergraduate grades but did engineering?
Posted on 7/29/16 at 6:08 pm to elleshoo9
I have that combo.
The engineering degree proves you can think.
The MBA proves you can bullshite.
Both are necessary for a successful career.

I've got a BS ChE & MBA, both bavk in the 1980s. Have been able to move through a few different industries and am at the Exec level in Mgt.
It's unbelievable that the skill of being able to talk to people in engineering, finance, sales, legal and operations, and then making decisions based on all input is a truly unique skill set. Without the degrees, even with that skill set, the opportunity to do so may never present itself.

So you're willing to give up your guns and accept single payer healthcare? Screw that.

It's a relatively new program offered at certain colleges.
It's essentially an MBA except all the students got their BS in engineering and the class projects involved engineering firms.
It also allowed me to take 3 graduate level course in Civil as my electives.

I think I could've gotten in there and almost applied. Great school.
Also, ASU has a surprisingly great online MBA program apparently. And you'd get to go to ASU's campus
Indiana is solid AF as well.
UF has a solid online program too.
