Trouble Picking which Degree to Go For! - Any advice?

[cclocks8]

As someone pretty steeped in education/hiring, I wouldn't recommend a MAOL. It's more of a check-the-box sort of degree versus actually having practical value. Especially considering these degrees usually require a fair degree of networking to have much conventional use. How much do get in a yourpace situation? I don't know, but I am guessing not a ton.

If you do go to an MBA program, PLEASE make sure it is from a ranked school. There are a million online MBAs and the majority aren't worth their salt. An MBA is one of the few degrees where reputation, rankings and networking all matter greatly.

If its a check-the-box situation, ignore everything I have said.

It's kind of a check the box situation. In my job I work directly with Fortune 100 & 500 leadership, and am on various boards with a lot of people leaders. My connections are there, but a lot of the jobs in my field require bachelor's degrees and prefer master's. If something happened to my current job I'd have a ton of interest, but probably wouldn't meet corporate requirements.

Stick with Sophia on the science lab. We have not seen the actual post about it from Facebook as it was removed. There has been ZERO discussion about this on Discord. I wouldn't stress. We don't know the backstory about that thread so keep on trucking until we hear otherwise.

Fingers crossed!
