(p.s., not doing Exec MBA because I'm doing a career change and need the experiences that come along with a full-time MBA, including an internship.)[/quote]

Think this through. This is the decision I faced, as I was late 20's but with a lot of experience (was running a small startup at the time). I'm glad I chose my school's (top 10 worldwide) exec MBA vs MBA program. The MBA students (who I did interact with in some electives) were just too "green", as the average age was mid 20's and their experience level was lower. My cohort was mostly early 30's and were at a different stage in their career.

The best way to find out is to sit in on a class if possible. I had a few classmates who were also changing their career, but I still thikn they fit better in the exec MBA program due to career experience at that point. Remember you're going to learn about 50% of things from your fellow classmates not the teacher. At least at my school, the career services was equally open to exec MBAs, so we could also find an internship if we so desired.[/quote]
