God help you Chuck. My question is: Do you really need a Masters degree? You don't need it to sit for the CPA exam do you?


I am crazy, but like Patrick_S said, a Masters doesn't hurt earning potential. My goal is to work for a CPA firm for a little while (in order to work as a manager which takes about 3-5 years to acheive, you must have a CPA certification), quit, and take over my dad's private accounting business. My other goal is to have a sweet car.

I got my Masters straight out of college and have never regretted it...education is something that no one can ever take from you

Thanks for the words of encouragement. I had my first class today. It's called 'comparative accounting' and deals with comparing accounting systems between the US and other countries. The syllabus is intense...several writing assignments with two term papers..in fact, I have a 7 pager due on Thursday. I'm gearing up for the hardest of times, but I know it will be worth it.
