Hi there,

Apologies as I just realized I hadn't replied to this, it slipped through somehow. Anyway if your question is about getting into the healthcare sector without prior experience, it could be challenging as that is a big switch for you... certainly it's possible that you could do an internship in that area during b-school which could give you some exposure and experience, BUT that said it would be easier to change to something more closely related... certainly b-school IS a place where many change careers, but you'd need to focus on what skills and experiences you have that will apply to your future career path.

An 'MBA in Healthcare' is actually not very common; though there do exist Masters degrees in Healthcare Management... I suggest you continue to do some research about the various types of degrees you are interested in, based upon what your career plans are.

Good luck to you!
