text: ma after grad? i need some advice on this...im graduating nx yr and i dont know whether to do the masters degree as well, just to get it over and done with, whilst im still in study mode...but i think i really need some work experience cos i dont really have any!  what do u think?   thanks it depends on your major.  if it's anything with science, math, engineering, or medical - go for the ma.  if it's business, education, or any other field where experience is just as valuable as schooling - wait!  i was able to complete a master's degree in a year and a half while working full time.  again, depending on your major, most universities offer evening and sometimes weekend classes.
