[quote=Anonymous]One of the best things I ever did for myself was getting an MBA from a top 25 program 25 years ago. My math skills were always good but I was a liberal arts major undergrad, and the business degree really helped me feel confident and also strengthen my business skills and learn stats, accounting, finance, etc. I am not scared to look at a balance sheet or understand the strategy behind most business decisions. That is 90% of the battle when dealing with c suite. The sad thing is, business degrees are still tilted toward men and even outside of the top programs it’s still only about 30-40% women. Also many of those are in the soft side of business a.k.a. marketing., rather than in the higher paying real estate or finance. For any woman who is relatively decent at math, and turned off by the more technical computer science or engineering world, a business degree is a great alternative. [/quote]
