Subject: Oxford MBA vs. LSE MSt in econ

I am in mid-forties, and will probably have one year off soon from my current work. I hope to get a one-year degree that will make me look better later on, though I will come back to my current job even after the degree.

Which degree will make me look better, between Oxford MBA and LSE MSt in econ, suggested that I would be admitted to both schools? Which degree can intimidate others a bit more than the other?

Thanks for your opinions in advance.

Neither is terribly impressive, but I think the LSE would be better. The Oxford MBA is pretty famous for being subpar and among the weakest programs there, although LSE MA programs are cash cows.
