i wanted that but it is impossible to get a job w/o a masters.

i got a bach of biz admin because it gives you a taste of everything.

you arent concentrated on one field ie. accounting you would have exp in management,finance, accounting, biz law, marketing etc.

you can get a job in any of those fields and then go back and get more education in it.

it was also the only degree i could get without taking a step back after i gave up on computer science. if i went elsewhere my cpu programming classes would have not counted toward anything

MBA is a pretty broad field, so you can pretty much get into many aspects in Business when you start looking for a job.
