The Plunge.....
OK....so I enrolled in an Executive Online Marketing MBA program....no big deal right?
But it was a tough decision since I have a Wife, 4 kids (all under the age of 10) and a career in Mortgage Banking!
At age 40 I wondered if I could study at this level.....but with the encouragement of my wonderful Wife, and the fact that my Dad completed his PHD in International Business at age 62....I took the plunge! (he even had to go back in to take Undergrad courses to even enroll in his MBA....then after he got done with his MBA, and PHD....he took another 12 hours of Doctoral level Marketing courses!)
As I was looking aroung the Internet to decide IF I wanted to do the MBA at all.....I was serching for someone's experience....to see what it's like....to see if I could hack it.....but found NOTHING OF THE SORT!
And since summarizing something helps to reinforce the subject in your mind, I thought that blogging about my experience from start to finish will help me solidify my learning as well as to provide readers with a resource to help them see what an MBA program is really like!
So here we go!
