What price top-drawer MBA?

Article Abstract:

In the United States most high-level executives hold a master's degree in business administration (MBA), but that is not the case in Australia, but more Australians see the value of the MBA and are attending American universities for their degree. The top 20 companies in Australia by market capitalization have only five MBAs. Major corporations support American MBA schools and offer lucrative jobs to the best graduates. Besides the top-rate education of American MBA schools, students can forge important lifetime business networking relationships. An Australian can expect to incur costs of at least $200,000 while pursuing the MBA.
