The choice of MBA will hinge on whether the person is a working professional or a student who has completed a graduation or post-graduation degree. The primary difference lies in the eligibility; for a regular MBA, graduation marks and entrance exam scores are considered, while for an executive MBA, graduation and work experience are taken into account. The approach in executive MBA is completely practical; on the other hand, in regular MBA, both theoretical and practical knowledge is given importance. The fee of a standard MBA compared to an executive MBA is higher, apparently depending on the institution. Finally, a regular MBA is done to get a better job; on the contrary executive MBA is done to boost the skills that can be of use in the workplace.
