<p>People often say to become a doctor it is a stable profession, whereas business is very risky. I agree that salaries range widely, but if one can go to a top MBA program is it still as risky? Their average salaries seem pretty good, and assuming you had the skills to get into a top MBA program would seem to indicate that you have the skills to at leaset be reasonably successful in business.</p>

<p>Is the whole “risk” factor of business due to the fact there are numerous amounts of MBA programs that are poorly ranked/unranked creating a false impression?</p>

<p>Most MBAs, even from top schools, are at risk of being fired because that it the way corporate America is. As you move up in your career, you can get a contract that specifies what you will get when terminated. Astute MBAs always have the next career move in mind, and have the skills and connections to make it happen.</p>
