    Re: two undergrad degrees

    As far as I can tell, there is limited utility to two undergrad degrees. However, your question re. which is more "economical" has more than one conotation. It's certainly cheaper to get two undergrads--particularly if you use a GRE at Excelsior. If fact, it can be so inexpensive that you may ask yourself, "Why not? Can't hurt...might help." However, if those extra dollars spent will ever turn into extra income is debatable. Maybe it'll give you an edge over another job applicant. Maybe it'll open up more opportunities if you want to look at jobs that require a B.A and jobs that require a B.S.

    An MBA, particularly from a reputable school, is far more likely to get you more $$$, but it'll also cost A LOT more than a second undergrad. That's why I decided that I'll go for my masters if someone else pays for it. I don't really have the interest and I'm really digging not using every spare moment to study!
