I do realize that there are more renowned MBA schools other than McMaster, but my question is obviously directed towards the Health Services program, as McMaster has quite a good reputation in health sciences.
In a more general response to the above, I don't think anyone is 'wasting' their time if they don't attend one of the 'M7' schools. I think people have to choose a school/degree that suits themselves. Some people that obtain an MBA, aren't necessarily looking to compete in the financial sector, work for big banks, or be the president/ceo of a company. Obviously the top schools have the best connections and expected salaries, but it all depends on what you want to do with the degree. For example, someone with a non-business background may simply want to augment their education with more business knowledge, but still work in the same field...in that case, it wouldn't necessarily be worth it to spend the money to get an education in the states.
