I'm really interested in 3 things... First off, I already have an Associates in Engineering Sciences.. So, I plan on upgrading it over a 5yr. Masters in Aerospace Engineering. But, I also wanted to get into aviation business admin. Now, I'm being told I need a high physics degree for what I would like to do...and some type of computer engineering or equivalent minor...
On top of this, I'm in flight school.. and the curriculum is based around core studies itself which leads to an aeronautics degree...
I don't know if I should minor in Aviation Business and go with Aerospace Eng. and Space Physics.. or Aero and Business with a minor in Physics...
If I triple in all of them + flight school which counts as another degree, that'll be a quadrouple major with a computer engineering minor :( I know I'll be doomed-- it'll take forever....
....and cost he*lla
Any suggestions would help... Thanx

I think that you should prioritize what you want and go for the path that will be fastest that will help you reach your goals faster.
Obviously, you need a Bachelor's degree before you get your Master's degree. What you can do is Double major in, let's say Physics and AerospaceEngineering and minor in Space Physics - this way, being a Physics major and a space physics minor will become complimentary - as opposed to majoring in both of them and getting too little in the Aerospace area (if you leave it as a minor).
As for flight school, I do not know how long it will be but I think it would be best to leave it until you get your Bachelor's degree... So, when you finish your Physics, Space Physics, and Aerospace Engineering, you may want to take a year off by finishing your flight school before you apply for Graduate school. This way, you would know more about Aerospace engineering that would surely be useful in your flight school education and may even get you course credits. You may also want to go part time in your flight school if you can. Double majoring and minoring takes alot of time and will definitely extend your time in college, but it will be worth it if it will help you prepare and be the best in your chosen field. So it all depends on you and the effort you will put into these. Doing everything at the same time will only cause you burnout and make your performance poor. Grad schools don't like lots of Bs... let alone Cs... Well, good luck, it may be alot of hard work and cost a lot of money but it is doable. Think it over and evaluate your skills and abilities. Good luck.

DO the minor in aero business. There are tons of folks in business and not enough with masters in aero engineering.

Lets see your asking a question that could determine your entire future, your job, your friends, your assets, where you live, on Yahoo Friggin Answers. I don't have a masters and I know thats not smart.

Rob, it's not rocket science!...wait, yes, yes it is. Sorry, I would find a different career personally.
