How Essential are M.B.A. Degrees?

                     

M.B.A. degree evaluations always come up for critique in business news. I personally have always felt, from my own experience, that much of it is useless, a waste of

tuition, and time extravagance.

                       

It may be great for networking. But then there are better ways to accomplish this.

                       

It’s entirely useless in business. You can get an outline for administrative guidance from books. But, again from my own business experience, I can tell you M.B.A. case studies are useless in practice and the real world.

                       

Unfortunately, M.B.A. is a great tag for lazy recruiters looking at a resume. Job applicants, however, can acquire that tag without years of expensive study, online and part-time. (See the Earl J. Weinreb NewsHole® comments and @BusinessNewshole at Twitter.)
