Pursue another Bachelors or get my Masters... which is the better route?
So basically I have an "expiring" BA in History with a minor in geography and I want to go back to school..
In your opinion, is pursuing another undergrad/BA in Business Finance more lucrative or a Masters (MBa) in Business-Finance?
I have heard pursuing another undergrad is pointless as it's so competitive, you need more than that.. but an MBa is really hardcore and I have no business experience.. so I'd be pursuing an MBa for business 'experience' (if i can get my foot in the door with the fact I'm trying to get my Masters) and for the letters behind my name.
However, alot of people with just their Undergrads can work their way up etc..
WHAT WOULD YOU DO??
Haha sorry man, I added the word 'expiring' in quotations because I graduated with it in 2008.
It's toilet paper..

MBA admissions usually look for someone with at least 2 years of at least minimal management experience. It's not really for most people.
You should really look for something that interests you, although law school is usually a good back up investment for college students who don't have a better idea of what to do. I majored in geography and I got really interested in urban design and planning, so I may go for a professional architecture master's degree. Also as the guy above said if you're interested in business and finance, take some classes and that might help you get better job prospects or grad school prospects in that field even without majoring in it. Good business schools at universities usually have good career services departments as well.

I think you should take the courses you need to understand the basics of business. Those courses would be micro & macro economics, accounting, finance, marketing, business law, statistics, management, information technology, strategic planning, etc.
These courses can be taken at community college, as an undergrad or as a graduate. I think you should look at specific MBA programs that include a lot of hands-on, group-projects, and internships. Then you need to ask them what your best options for preparation should be.

when you consider which you're quite great at writing, chemistry, physics and math I say you pass forward and pursue a careeer as an preparation expert and you ought to pass on as being a instructor or a custom. They make great money and in case you chosen to be a custom you may artwork in all areas. (: desire this helped

Another Bachelor's won't impress anyone, you'll need a higher degree.
