BLS Question, BLS vs BABA

[dfrecore]

Almost everyone will be able to get a BLS more quickly than a BABA - half of the degree is electives.

That being said, I wouldn't compare yourself to others. You won't have the same work experience as anyone else, so it's impossible to determine why exactly someone gets a job (it's normally a combination of things). Instead, I'd ask, what is the degree I need for the jobs I want? Go look at those jobs, and see what degrees they're asking for (if any). If they want "any" degree, then go get a BLS. But if they want a business degree, then go get that instead. If you have little to no experience, you're MUCH better off with a business degree than a BLS. If you have 10 or 15 years of experience in a field, then it may not matter.
