I understand where you're coming from, and to each his (or her) own. I sat down and figured it out the other night, and I've probably spent close to $3,000 dollars on my exams in the last year. ($70+$20 for DSST's, $65+$20 for Cleps). There's a part of me that wishes I would have used the GI Bill or my Chapter 31 assistance for that $3000. Still, I want to hoard as much as I can since I enlisted back in the days of 15k'sh GI Bill, and I was in the Marine Corps which didn't jump on board with some of the higher education plans. <--- *Jealous of the Air Force*
My comment was merely a small example of the inimidation I feel when I look at some of the graduate school tuitions. I honestly can't imagine spending 90-130k on a two year EMBA program, but it helps somewhat to realize that my GI bill will pay for at least 20k of it. I"m still looking around for other alternatives (Oxford is only 60k, but a hellacious GMAT score).
