Is a Joint Degree JD/MBA program worth it?

We Answered:

The short answer is that it depends on the industry/career path you are interested in. I have an LLB (U.K. equivalent to the JD in the U.S.) and an MBA. I am in banking..risk management analysis. I could do my job w/out the law degree but it makes me more marketable than your average analyst.

As for accounting -vs- law...accounting has more career opprtunities (whether in industry or consulting) and is one of the fields projected to have the highest levels of growth in coming years...in short, you may always have a job (or avenues to a job). I recommend that you do an M.S. in Accounting rather than JD unless you have your heart set on legal practise. In terms of your questions:
1)....I work at least 65hrs per week. This is typical in finance/legal, whether in industry or consulting.
2).... Starting salaries for accounting majors are $45K, while in legal, they are $35K.....both have pretty good money potential but in legal you have to remain billable whereas in accounting (billable hours are only used in consulting)...
3)......both fields generate pretty good contacts, if you wish to leverage to pursue a political career.
Good luck!

How do I get into a MBA program with a degree in sociology?

We Answered:

Take the GMAT and apply to a school that fits you. Most MBA programs prefer students with 2-3 years work experience after the first degree, but many accept students right out of college if they have good grades and a high GMAT score. Some MBA programs are designed specifically for new college graduates without work experience. MBAs with good grades are in high demand and they command good starting salaries. To find the MBA program that best fits your background, criteria and preferences, a good source of information is the Official MBA Guide, a free public service at http://officialmbaguide.org. You can use it to select programs in specific geographic regions, specific concentrations, or specific types of programs, such as full-time, part-time, executive, distance learning, and accelerated. You can specify criteria that are important to you and get a ranked list of programs that best fit those criteria. From the Guide you can go directly to a school's URL or contact schools by email.

The Harvard one is not strictly an MBA - it is a degree in management - but it is as good as.

Thanks
