USC PharmD/MBA vs. PharmD... then MBA

What career opportunities would a graduate from the USC PharmD/MBA program expect to find? Would it be a better idea to work toward the PharmD first, and then apply to a more notable business school after? Additionally, would attending UCSF Pharmacy School be more expensive than USC Pharmacy School, if living expenses were included? Thank you for your time!

UCSF is a state school and USC is private so I would guess that USC is more $$$

If you go to USC, and the PharmD/MBA can be done in 4 years at no extra (or little extra costs), then I would just do that, rather than trying to tack on the MBA after you graduate.
