<p>Frankly, as an MBA and being in “business” for over 30 years, if you rule out real vocational fields of finance, accounting, IT, there is NO vocational trianing in business. And frankly, even Programmers (IT) or softwarre developers in business DO NOT NEED any degree at all. However, not everybody could be successful in sales, management, IT, accounting, or any type of broker. You need to posses certain internal characteristics in addition to your skills.
So, going for business including an MBA ( which actually was much easier in my academic journey then my UG portion as it did not include countless hours completing my computer programs and for that matter, CC was the hardest of them all, yes, much harder than completing the other classes to get my BS, while MBA portion was the easiest of them all) make sense only if you are personally interested in it or planning to be in business and NOT in MEDICINE. The same exact reasons why my D. pursued Music minor in UG. No plans on becoming a musician at all, not any kind of back plan. She did not have any back up plan. She wanted to be an MD, period and she put whole ton of effort into in to make sure that Medical School is a reality for her and not just a dream.
This is an honest assessment of a person who has an MBA and have been in business for over 30 years, in many different industries and currently working for huge international automotive supplier dealing with the biggest customers in the the world.</p>
