I have been going back and fourth in terms of grad options as evidenced by my positing history. I have started to look into actual MBA programs due mostly to contacts in the corp finance side.
My problem is that even the most well known dont seem to be even remotely quantitative, even in the finance area. They seem more like business programs, even less quantitative than undergrad finance or econ majors. NYU seemed to have a decent amount of asset pricing and valuation, but most of the others seems to be dominated by accounting and management courses, even in the finance concentrations.
Is a MS in finance a decent balance between these two? Would it typically provide a decent amount of the hard skills of a mfe and the soft skills of an mba?
Also have I just not found the proper MBA programs, are they more quantitative than what I have seen? If so which are some of the more quantitative ones?
