I think the key is to know what you are going to college for. I Have A degree from The Ohio State University, Max Fisher College of Business in MIS. I also, am enrolled at Franklin University MBA in MIS. Lastly,I admit to having my CCNP (working on CCDP). Of all the tests I have taken over the years the Cisco exams are by far the easiest. I think we need to be realistic when comparing Certs Vs. Education. It took me 4 months to get my CCNP it took me 6 Years to get my education. The CCIE would probably take me as long to prepare for as my MBA; however, I think the MBA will open up far more doors.
Calculus, Physics, Finance, Accounting, Economics to name a few to receive a degree. Remember you don't just take one of each you take several. I agree with the course load listed in the e-mail below. > -----Original Message----- > From: J.D.
