Hey ot-ers, I'm looking for some suggestions to expand my horizons right now. I've been in business for a little while now, but I've never enjoyed it and don't really want to do it anymore. I'm wondering what kind of grad programs I could do with a bachelors in business but don't directly correlate to it.

Please try to be specific or suggest careers. I'm more confused about what kind of jobs would be available than the actual fields.
TIA!

Just make sure you post every single week about how insecure you are about the program you chose.

I have no idea, but I assume they probably do better now.

Any specific in mind? I've always worried I'm not good enough at art to get where it would help me.

How strong are you in Math??

I'd suggest take a few math pre-reqs and then go into Business Analytics. LSU has a Masters program that is heavily oriented to people going to private industry. But might cost a bit.

Or just get a PhD at UTenn in Business Analytics and have all of it paid for by the school. No debt incurred.

I understand that, but that's why I'm trying to move up. Because I'm not satisfied and this is something I CAN do instead of taking my fate up the arse.

Give us more specifics.

What is it you don't like about it? Business in general? Work hours? Money? Cubicle work? Purpose in life? Time spent traveling?

And on the other side, what is it you want to get out of your job? What are your passions?

Business is extremely broad.

There's a "hand check" clause related to public altercations.

I just never liked it; it never clicked with me. Got pushed into it by parents and by the time I realized I could choose something else, I was almost done anyways so I just went ahead and finished the degree. I've always been a jack-of-all-trades, kind of person, decent at a lot of stuff but not good at one thing. I have no idea what one thing I want because I can never focus on just one thing.
