Enroll to Grad

Im having some major difficulties with what major to choose. I admited that I prefer IB than Finance. However, I asked around and did more research and eventually came to know that all the international business courses are theory. And Finance seems more marketable.
Please give me as much information as you can in terms of which degree I should study abroad?

The biggest difference is going to be where you study not what you study.

MBAs are just a way to get into the job market, you can get the same skill set far more cheaply by doing accountancy. Just go to the best name brand school you can get into.

f you have a real choice, Finance plus a second language would be the most marketable.

I received a BA in Mass Communications and I am enrolled in a Grad program for a MA in English. However, I was about a semester shy of getting a BA in History and was wondering if the school I am attending for Grad school would let me transfer those history units and let me complete a BA in History.

Second degree rules usually require that you not only complete all requirements for the new/second degree but that you earn 30 new hours that weren’t used in the first degree.

Most schools also won’t let you be enrolled at two levels (grad and undergrad) at the same time.

With 30 new hours though, you could probably earn a BA in History - but, an MA in History only takes a little more than that and if you were close to the BA already then you probably have the undergrad hours to get into an MA in History when you finish the one in English.

For career purposes - it would be beneficial to do another MA if you plan to write about history, teach in the public schools (dual area cert with Master’s +30 pay), teach in a community college (multiple content areas), or work in a museum as a curator of history with research/writing responsibilities.

I will be graduating at the end of the year (after the fall semester). I will be receiving a degree in international business with a double major in German and possibly an economics minor. What kind of internship would be best given my educational background?

You can get micro-credit internships in developing countries such as Senegal and Ecuador. I know that GlobalNomadic.com have a good range of economic internships.

Hello
I am majoring in biology and I have a 2.6 GPA . I am willing to enroll to a master program in forensic science! though I don’t know if I’d get accepted with this GPA.

My question is how much should I be getting on the GRE in order to influence on the admission council’s decision?

THank you

100%

If you had a 3.0 GPA, I would tell you that you wouldn’t stand a very good chance at getting in. Most graduate programs require a 3.5 GPA or higher, and it is typically on the higher side.

Please, if you have some experience in IB or Finance give us some feedback. I like to travel and I like different cultures etc… But most people go for MBA Finance. Is it because there more jobs in Finance? Are finance jobs boring and fun?

Do you know some graduate in any IB programs how was their careers and job perspective. Share with us!

Thank you in advance.

Finance is usually seen as more marketable. What you should keep in mind is the difference between what you want to do and where you want to go? You can certainly travel and work in different parts of the world with an MBA in finance, you don’t have to have a degree in IB just to work over seas. Most people who work abroad are actually teachers or in education and not in business.
Some of my students in Finance are working for car dealerships, and at banks as loan officers. One student is working for a company in china in the payroll department. He manages the overseas employees housing, transportation, insurance and salary.

I watch 3 boys ages 1, 2, and 4 1/2. I have to take out my own taxes. They pay me 13 an hour, but it is really 10 an hour. I also clean constantly and am on the go a lot. I work 60 hour weeks. I have experience and a degree. I am enrolled in grad school as well.

I would say that you should be making more than $10/hr if you have a degree and experience.
I was paid $500 - $600/wk for 45 hours and 2 kids, with no degree and no experience in a lower income area.
