Hello everyone.
I went back about 10 pages and am still going through this thread.

I realized there are not many in Monash MBA. Anyone knows why?
Anyone knows what's roughly the age and experience of the participants there as it seems like it being a fulltime course might attract a younger (assumption is that younger people have less financial commitments) crowd.

Currently looking at MBA programs. I work offshore alot and am away for months, hence it's almost impossible for me to do it part time. If I were to do it full time, it would also mean quitting my job.

Looking at options as part time studies might take longer to complete and I cant afford being jobless for so long. Taking full time MBA looks like there isnt much options in KL too (Monash seems to have some reputation).

Hopefully can get in touch with anyone here who studied in Monash MBA program

Look at MBA rating instead uni rating. This is because lots of business school is highly regards in industry but not in uni rating. They are listed in MBA rating.

Most reputable MBA allow you to adjust the semester scheduling eg do 1 semester from apr to July then skip sept- feb sems then continues as your time permit. Also adjust load, eg 2 or 4 subject as you can bear.
Usually as long as within 6-7 years to complete the syllabus then you are consider conplete.

thanks.
For my case, I plan to focus on it full time. I'll plan my savings accordingly for 1.5 years. Anything more will be a stretch. So far it seems like Monash is offering it.

You will attend classes once every 6-7 weeks in our purpose built Graduate Centre at Sunway University. Classes are run in block mode, whereby you will usually have classes on Thursday and Friday evenings and all day Saturday and Sunday. This is followed by approximately 5 weeks of self-learning when, with the support of the facilitators and interaction with your class peers, you will complete your assignments. Then you will move onto your next module. Class dates are advised well in advance to ensure you can plan your busy schedule of work and personal commitments around pursuing your studies.

so every 6-7 weeks theres classes on Thurs-Sun?

I believe Strathclyde is every 2 weeks Sat - Sun full day, which does seem alot more taxing.

Considerations like these have to be taken into account for a job that travels around alot.

From academic and self learning POV, isnt this a red flag...??

I do have the same opinion as you.
Also, UK is so small hence 38th isnt exactly high too.
