I'm heading into my senior in school and expected to graduate in May 2011. Law school was suppose to be in my future, but after thinking about it I'm not really interested in going that route in my career path. My major is Business Administration with a minor in Economics and Finance. Whatever I plan on doing, I want to be in the field of Finance. Looking into financial advising, banking, personal investing and eventually end up being a CFO of a major corporation.
I've been doing a lot of reading online about which degree would be better to pursue and I know its best to have some work experience when pursuing the MBA. I know the MBA takes a little longer, focuses a little more on leadership abilities, etc. I also know that both degrees may require a different test whether its the GRE or GMAT.
I've did a few internships the past 3 summers within' certain departments, so that may add up as work experience. I want to go by December 2011 giving me a good 6 months to possibly work within' my internship some more before going to school.
Anybody that went either route can give me their input on what may be the best way to go or may be in a similar situation as me?
