Once I get out with a B.S/Masters in Business Management I can only hope to make half of what you are projected to make, and ill be 21-24 when I get out...

has going to school really become the odd way out now-a-days.
my plan: (2 years to go!!)
BS in Environmental Studies
MPA (masters in public administration)
SLO is definately a great school and means a lot if you got accepted into their business school. good luck getting out of there in anything less than 5 years with your undergrad though, and youd probably be looking at 7 with your MBA. its not far from the ventura county area though, about 2 to 2.5 hours. driving 5 hours every time i want to go home sucks.

Yeah im about 99.99% sure that I will attend CSUCI, I like the "private school feel" and the primo location of the school... Just my 2 pesos...

Mr. Havoc114,
With all due respect....
You calculated
6x700= $4200
12 hours times 15 dollars= $180
180x6= $1080
4200+1080=5280
5280x4 weeks = 21120
21120x12=253,440.... 
Sorry to disappoint you in your math skills but $5280/week is not $253,440/year.
The problem lies where you assume there's 48 weeks/year when in reality there are 52.2 weeks/year, So actually your math should look like this...
$4200+$1080=$5280/week
so at $5280/week
$5280/week * 52.2 weeks/year = $274,560/year (note how the weeks cancel out and you're left with year)...
The Good news is you CAN make more money than you originally anticipated, The bad news is your math skills need improvement and going to school might not seem like a bad idea since working with numbers is a BIG BIG deal in everyday life. I personally think math and proper grammar are paramount.
In any route you choose in life I wish the best and put 110% of your effort into it...
SI SE PUEDE!
I sincerely hope no one gets offended but I can't stand to witness someone make a math error...

Hey BW,
One thing I learned a loooong time ago was this,,,,,
Numbers don't lie.
Men may manipulate, but numbers never lie.
Whoops theres that odor again.

actually Hugo its 52.142857142857142857142857142857142857 * 5280 = 275314.29
but by your calculations 5280 * 52.2 = 275,616......

Right on Havoc,
Glad to know you understand and can take constructive crtitism, that alone will help you out in life. There's a lot of folks out there that can't take anything whether they're right or wrong.
Tony,
My brotha' from another motha'...
52.2weeks/year is the average used because of leap year.
Just like there are 365.25 in a year to make up for leap year..
Leap year happens every four years so .25 of a year *4 years= 1 complete year.
'Me intiendes mendes"..."o te lo esplico Federico"....
The $1056 difference is what I'm charging!!!!!lol
Come on man, Don't you know better than that...What you think I work for free....
