MBAs don’t really Impress people with MBAs. The corporate world I live in is riddled with credentials that don’t actually qualify the holders to do anything. An MBA may be a useful title, and it may even get you a promotion, if that is the model your corporation follows. But, if there is one thing that I have learned from this program, it is to not be in awe of someone because they have an MBA. An undergrad business degree is more impressive.

This isn’t a knock against LSUS. I compared the course work with a friend who just finished a top 10 full time program, and the conclusion was that the content and difficulty was comparable.

I am about to take my first class with Vines for FIN701 AP1 in January. I see he is highly recommended. Can anyone provide any materials I can pre-read like a syllabus or anything else his class requires?

Vines is the best instructor for FIN 701. Definitely take the course with him.

I agree that an MBA doesn't impress people with MBAs, but for a lot of those people (IMO), it is the minimum buy-in for a seat at the table.
