Hey guys, so I'm planning on doing a 1 year masters program just incase this cycle doesn't go as planned. I got accepted to both programs i applied to, one is an MS program the other is an MBA. The reason why I'm leaning more towards an MBA is because we spent 4 years in undergrad learning the type of science that is quite irrelevant to the field of dentistry and i don't wanna continue doing the same thing for an extra year except this time in more depth. On the other hand, I'm actually very surprised that dental school doesn't require any business classes prior to attending since we're all planning to operate our own practice one day. So my question is, does it put me at a disadvantage for doing an MBA rather than an MS? I just feel like spending a year learning fundaments in business is more useful in the real world than continuing to do what we've been doing in undergrad except this time in more depth.
