Hi I’ll be transferring to Baruch College next semester from Queens College. I read about Baruch’s 4+1 Master’s program for accounting. I was wondering if it would be a wise decision to finish my BBA in 3 years and go straight to Master’s because that would mean I could get my Master’s in 4 years rather than 5.

However, my brother, who is working on his MAcc at Baruch, told me that it is very hard to do that because job opportunities depend on internship experience, GPA, etc. He suggests me to do the traditional way, which is 5 years, and focus on internship and good GPA simultaneously.

Should I do it his way or my way?

Btw, I am a freshmen with 12 AP credits and currently working on a 13 credits so basically I’ll have 25 by next semester.
