I'm looking for some realistic advice, I'm a tier 3 2026 CSE B.Tech Grad, with a 7.5 CGPA, no internship experience and a drop year after my second year. I believe my chances of getting into corporate is low, especially given the current market.
I made a mistake of taking college lightly, if I go for a masters or a MBA now I will be trying my level best in things, should I go for it or should I look to switch fields entirely ?

My colleagues
Just to put some intro
I am 22 years after college experience and worked in consulting for 15 years and currently in industry for 7 years.
My long term goal is to go back to consulting more of a business advisor from a strategy perspective
Here is my question
Would MBA be any good for me especially looking at strategy side?
I don’t want to spend $200K and would probably go online MBA in a mid tier school. Are those any good?
Looking forward to your great input on this topic
