Hi everyone
I am a newly minted JD thinking about doing an MBA. I enjoyed the study of the law, but doing internships at law firms and also hearing about peoples' experience in the profession, I do not think i'd enjoy being an attorney. I am also quite disillusioned by the job market for attorneys. It is quite saturated, and the pay is not as good as most people think.
Even though I was a liberal arts major in college, I've always been interested in reading about business, economy, and investing. I read the WSJ, BusinessWeek, and books like "The Intelligent Investor".
I'd like to pursue a career in the business world, especially in terms of finance, but don't know if an MBA is right for me or a Masters in Finance. I am also concerned especially about being able to enter a Finance program due to not having a quantitative background.
I have also even considered getting a Masters in Accounting, just to get my foot in the door of the business world.
Any advice would be appreciated, thank you
