    You'll be hard pressed to have a good career without an MBA. And if you get an MBA in marketing, you'll be too limited if your under-graduate work is in marketing. As a 4-year major, marketing offers very little opportunity. If you want to pursue a career, get your under-graduate degree in an area that interests you. Then add the MBA.
