I'm thinking of doing an EMBA starting january 2009. Can anyone recomend a good one? Offer me any useful insights? How long did you spend boning up on the GMAT beforehand? Thanks, Helen

Helen, The good news is that these days an EMBA is offered at pretty much every major business school in the US, and some might not require GMAT scores if you are an established professional. Currently the top program is offered through Northwestern's Kellogg School of Management. Also Cornell and Harvard have pretty good online platforms. If you are looking for a traditional ExecutiveMBA University of Chicago has an excellent program but it requires regular campus classroom time. Also, I noticed you are in the U.K. and so you may look into Thunderbird's Global MBA degree that is now offered online and on campus. They have a great track record for having graduates recruited to work in global management. I posted the links for NW and Thunderbird's programs below, hope that helps, Steve
