Whoever posted the comment about whether an MBA is worth it or not - I have your answer. Don't go back to school. The very fact that you are trying to evaluate education in terms of how much it guarantees a future salary suggests you understand very little about what an MBA is all about. Nothing in the world aside from hard work and persereverence guarantees high salaries. So stop trying to do "roi" analyses on educational opportunities - the value of education just change just because the economy is in the dumps |

Why do you think this is such a ridiculous discussion? The press picks up a story about every six months as a new organization, professor, etc. does an MBA ROI study. Obviously, there are many people who are very interested...
Besides, b-school is a notable exception as a "trade school" where a degree [and an entrance exam!] aren't required for the profession. A doctor can't practice without med school [and boards and residency and specialization...] but no one will stop you from "practicing business" without an MBA.
So, Steve2003, please explain to me why the value [or lack thereof] of an MBA is so obvious...
