Greetings!
Yes, there are a couple of problems with it, but they are minor. :-) First of all, don't forget that most nouns in English require an article, so you would say "To obtain
an MBA..." (or, if you were writing out Masters of Business Administration, you would say "To obtain a Masters..."). Secondly, the sentence is actually a fragment. If you are merely answering a question like "Why do you want to attend this school?" and you are to write only a sentence as a direct answer, then it might be fine. However, if this is part of an essay, you need to make it a whole sentence, such as "My purpose in attending [name of school] is to obtain
an MBA as
a starting point..." (the rest of the sentence is fine)
Best of luck in your studies!
