11th Hour Degree Change and Questions

[marianne202]

I have a cousin who has a bachelor's degree in HR and she has been limited in her career choices. While HR management does include some management skills, most will view it as an HR degree only. If you love HR and want to stay in HR I would stick with the HR focus. If you want to get into departmental management or think you might want your MBA down the road you might be better served by going the general management focus. I think it boils down to the type of work you like and the field you are in. What about the business law DSST? If you have taken HR classes you might know a lot of the business law material. Management information systems was pretty doable with the flash cards and specific exam feedback, especially if you know some basic computer knowledge. The other option is the A&I literature or technical writing exams, as they are fairly easy, but I'm not sure where TESC assigns them as far as credits, so they might not be considered electives under your program of study. Good luck! BTW, I'm one to always come up with ways to make myself crazy by changing my mind at the end too! Sometimes as we get closer to our goal, we realize our goalpost wasn't placed correctly, so we have to move it!!!
