How can I choose one between MBA in marketing and finance?

In my opinion the MBA specialisation should be chosen based on 2 attributes. First is your area of interest and second is your capability to excel in that area. Money does matter, but in the long term it won't. Finance will make or break the company. Marketing is the back bone for the company. Finance if you perform well; you will move to the top. Managing the Marketing is more important than doing marketing. If you are an introvert - Go for Finance. If you are an extrovert - Go for Marketing. Getting a job in Marketing is easy compared to Finance.

As per my understanding MBA in Marketing and Finance both has good career scope, But I will suggest you to choose MBA with Marketing, The Marketing MBA is a specialisation within the MBA (Master of Business Administration), which is one of the most widely pursued graduate degrees. Marketing students research consumer behaviour and design items that they are likely to purchase. Advertising, branding, market research, and worldwide and online marketing are just a few of the topics covered in marketing classes. Below are some of the best Private Universities:-
BITS Pilani, ICT Mumbai, Mumbai. VIT Vellore, Vellore. Geeta University, Panipat

Hello!
MBA is an ambitious professional degree that broadens the career horizons for the students. One can find a challenging role with reputed companies in any sector. However, choosing one field as the best would be unjustified on account of others. It is because, every stream, whether it is International Business, Marketing, HR, Finance or International Business, has got a massive scope in the present business scenario.

Corporate needs highly dynamic and skilled individuals in every sector who can manage the respective resources optimally. Moreover, in the current business scenario, companies can't afford to ignore one resource for others. So, the choice of the field entirely depends upon the interests of the candidates. Because curiosity leads to passion. One can't be a human resource manager if he has no interest in dealing with people or he is tech-savvy. So, success is also directly proportional to your interest in the chosen career. There are a certain set of skills required for a successful career in MBA Finance and another set of skills for MBA Marketing functions. If you are good at number-crunching, have analytical skills, an inquisitive mind and problem-solving ability then MBA in finance may be a good option for you. But if you are someone who is brimming with creative ideas, possess good communication skills, and have the power to persuade others then MBA in marketing may be the right choice for you. Secondly, choosing the right college with prominent placement rate is also crucial in the process. I have done my MBA from Lovely Professional University and based on my experience, I can say that LPU provides you the apt atmosphere for learning. Being an LPU Alumni, I can say that LPU has experienced faculty members, well-equipped labs, great infrastructure, excellent placements, complete training and placement assistance and lot more and that too at a very low fees and high scholarships. The university is equipped with the latest technologies delivering the most effective methods of teaching in its spacious campus. LPU provides an environment where students are enlightened through the extensive array of learning methodologies. Highly qualified teaching staff combined with the best laboratories and modern technologies makes LPU the best place to pursue your degree. So, follow your dreams and live your passion. You can crack a job that not only pays good but also keeps your passion ignited. I hope this helps. Good Luck!

MBA Finance is more about financial analysis, cost analysis, investment, portfolio analysis which need an analytical mind and an eye for detail.
Whereas marketing is for people oriented person. If you like knowing and talking to people then for sure you can go for MBA marketing. Marketing job involves a lot of travel.
Both the fields have pros and cons you have to decide it on basis of your personality and abilities. Please go through the links mentioned below.
