工作五年去读master不合适了？

Angela7777UID: 3667907

背景：工作五年，财务类；双非本科，经济类；想去加拿大读书然后移民。

问题： 看到SFU 网站上MF 的要求有一条：工作1-3年
   
          还看到论坛里介绍ivey的帖子，楼主也是说工作经验不要超过2年。
         
          五年工作经验去读master不合适？ 只能去读MBA？

This depends on which school, and Canada has school other than SFU and Ivey.

P.S.1 what is the point choosing a MF instead of MBA for a working professional?
P.S.2 there are post-experience business master other than MBA (not much but a few), and there are master that are not in the business school......

对于MBA的理解，更多的是用于建人脉，真正学习的东西，多而广；我个人觉得学习实用性专业，更适合找工作。 这也只是我的理解，可能比较片面。

只是不太理解master要招3年内工作经验的人。

比较心仪ivey, 所以关注些。

I agree with your point of view indeed,  and it is not only MBA, but also all other program (except PhD) is for - networking,  soft skill,  and etc.

And thus.  If you are expecting sonething in depth and technical,  who fxcking care the business schools?
Solid technical master in quantitative finance,  data science are mostly hosted by science or engineering faculty anyway....


P.S. the reason why some master has a 3 (or 2) year WE limit is because it is a pre-experience one.  And the reason why business school seperate pre and post experience master is obvious - the need of fresh graduate and well experienced working professional are different.  It is not a good idea to mix them up.
You can get a MBA with concentration in finance instead of a MSF, thats not a problem.  But seems there are no much MBA or post experience master with an analytics concentration,  so seems there are no such counterparty for a business analytics mastet yet (i believe this is going to happen in a few years)

非常谢谢你的解答，我也看到了不少和我遇到同样问题的人，工作了几年，不知道该选MBA还是MASTER。
综合你和大家的建议来看，还是MBA更适合我现在的状况吧。
想去加拿大的主要原因也是移民，现在先努力刷GMAT，再想下一步了。
