MBA ... is it worth it?

I have recently commenced further studies to advance my career. After much investigation and soul-searching, I decided to undertake a Masters of Business Administration (MBA) in Marketing Management at the Australian Institute of Business (AIB). My undergraduate degree certainly did not prepare me for the time requirements and commitment needed to complete a masters. The gap between also has not helped.

So far I have enjoyed the experience. The course is focused on “experience” rather than just theoretical learning, which is what attracted me to it in the first place. I can really apply what I am learning to past experiences, and use what I am learning to make smarter decisions.

To answer the question … is an MBA worth it? Only time will truly tell, but right now I see a bright future. Shrouded a bit by many more hours spent studying, writing assignments, and exams.
