If you go to a top MBA program, you can expect to have a lot of help in finding a job with six figures. I've attached a link to a brochure from Duke's MBA program. Pages 39-42 deal with the kinds of jobs people get when they graduate. Most of the top schools have this kind of informatin on their web sites.

Why would you be looking at going back for an MBA if you don't even have a sense of what it might lead to? The job titles are varied, depending upon what you specialize in - finance, marketing, information systems, etc. You should really do some more extensive research before committing yourself to what could be an expensive and time-consuming program. If you are currently working in business, consider who at your current company has an MBA. Talk to some of them about what the MBA got them and whether or not they needed the degree to get their current position. Look at jobs and companies you are interested in, and see if they hire MBAs for the types of things you want to do (keep in mind that some companies would look at an MBA as valuable, but others see it as an overqualification, since MBAs generally command higher salaries). Look at job listings for those which specify MBA required, or even MBA preferred. Even if the degree is only preferred, you will probably need it unless you have years of very relevant experience.

Depending on what you're receiving your MBA in, you can get a ton of jobs. As far as financially, I know that people with MBA's usually make more money than someone with a Bachelors degree. Once again, it mainly depends on the field you're receiving your degree in. Good luck! :)

depends on your undergraduate background. I believe an MBA is designed to train you to be a competent manager of an organisation.

Lets see
Master of Business Adminstration.
Sounds like running or help running a business might be appropriate.
I hope you will team that degree with a coarse or two in logic....even a dose of remedial logic would be of benefit.

almost anything, honeslty. Oh, and if you aren't married; it can get you girls. (but maybe not the ones that are worth your time.)
