Value of getting a JD-MBA

Post by reilanrc » Wed Apr 13, 2011 10:04 am

Just posting to see what everyone's opinions were on the value of getting a JD-MBA. I am interested in corporate law and the school I am attending has a very well regarded MBA program. How much more appealing would something like this make me to prospective law firms (in specific fields obviously). Thanks for your help.

Forget about JD/MBA unless you have a very specific reason to get it. Besides, admission to decent MBA program requires 4-6 years of experience. Law firms can care less whether you have one or not. And next time use search button first. This has already been discussed.

A JD/MBA is worthless for corporate law.
