Notes:

IESE ($) - 30k EUR
Duke ($$) - 75k USD

Duke means $30k more debt due to healthcare, but the US market offers $150k+ salaries for quick repayment. IESE is cheaper but fewer high-paying jobs to repay loan quick (all in Middle East and Asia).

I aim to pay in 3-4 years and return to LATAM. Any advice? Do I have chance for negotiating any offer?
