[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't consider an MBA to be prestigious these days, regardless of the university. Everyone has one. They are as common as BA/BS degrees. Also, most MBA programs can now be completed fairly easily online even from prestigious universities. [/quote]

My spoiled niece had her retired dad do most of her online MBA work. They are a total farce. And I believe Georgetown has all sorts of online and weekend MBA programs, so who knows who actually did a “real” one. Credentialism has jumped the shark. Too many nitwits with too many bogus degrees.[/quote]

I think it is relatively easy to differentiate between a full MBA at the business school and abbreviated MBAs at extension schools.  I imagine most schools are quite clear about notifying students about how to describe their “degree”.  At least at Georgetown they were and I was in the regular full program.

I would never assume an executive MBA had any relationship to a full MBA.  It doesn’t make a full MBA useless just because a condensed versions, which can be differentiated, exist.[/quote]
