Hello, Vikrant Bhargava
The best country for pursuing an MBA depends on your personal preferences, career goals, and financial situation. If you're looking for high-paying job opportunities and top-tier schools, the U.S. and the U.K. are excellent choices. However, if you prefer lower costs and high-quality education, Germany and Canada may be more appealing options. Singapore and France also offer excellent business schools and are great choices for those wanting to work in Asia or Europe. Ultimately, consider the reputation of the business schools, the curriculum, location, costs, and visa policies before making your decision.
