Dear Aspirant,
The straight answer to your question is remove the MBA from your mind, if you wish to be a Statistician.
Not every field requires MBA degree for career growth. Without MBA one cannot progress and get into managerial position is a great FALSE.
As a Statistician you will gain much more than any MBA. Statistician is the highest and toughest level of course.
Statistics Majors will give you awesome jobs since Statisticians are scarce in supply.
Best wishes
