    I wish all of this existed in the 2000 to 2010 time frame. I also wish I could go back and explain to my younger self what it is the workforce actually values as far as practical actionable knowledge, and how very different that is from anything you get from 99% of colleges. I'm not saying you don't get anything that is actionable and practical for work from a college degree, because you definitely can, but so much of that is stuff that you learn and teach yourself. It's how you translate the theory of knowledge and make it actionable yourself

    Basically acquire knowledge to full proof my future. My end goal if not running my own business, i would want to be trading stocks or forex trading.. I don’t see myself working for someone else my entire life.
    So to start with should i enroll in BS Finance, or just enroll to MBA as starting point to get the credentials under my name. And learn other skills necessary for the task needed in the future. Per se technical skills, perhaps learn to code later on and etc..
    i’m quite confused or how i would kickstart this new journey.. i hope i could find a good road map.

      Yep, as long as you have a GPA above or around 3.5 and good reasoning for entering the graduate program you'll have a good time getting accepted into a master's or doctoral program. One thing you may want to consider however is that since Sophia is pass/fail that will likely mean the other GPA-graded courses you take will be weighted more heavily. Just something to keep in mind.

      There are so many better schools with kinder transfer policies that we haven’t really touched them. If you look up their transfer policy they basically charge you everywhere they can (eval fee for incoming transcripts, tuition increase when you transfer in 60 credits, etc). And they don’t have open ACE acceptance policies, which usually isn’t good. But you’re right, it’s tough to find CBE/hacking friendly arts programs for some reason.

    Thank you great channel, will definitely sign up for a consultation. But you both contradicted yourselves one saying Thomas Edison gets you quicker, and the other saying umpi gets you quicker?
    And also said: TESU for standardized exams, while umpi is rather with modules and final exams so the later is better for being on your own pace?
