Does an MBA add value to someone who graduated from Wharton undergrad?

<p>or is a Wharton undergraduate degree enough?</p>

With a rigorous business education, close to two-thirds of Wharton undergraduate alumni find that they never need to return to school for an MBA in order to advance their careers. And if you do decide to get an MBA, your undergraduate degree will put you ahead of the game.

<p>In general (at least for Wharton undergrads) the purpose of the MBA is not necessarily for the education. The purpose of getting an MBA is a) to take a little vacation from the tough business lifestyles and b) to network a ton. That’s why it’s advisable to get an MBA at another top school (if you choose to get one) so that you have the alumni networks at two top schools pulling for you. In general, an MBA is not necessary, especially for Wharton grad, but in a lot of cases getting an MBA will be a requirement to move up the ladder, to switch careers/field or to join industry/corporate world.</p>
