Should I bother getting my AA if Im going to get my BS this winter

[krunchykrome]

I will be graduating with a Bachelors in Accounting at the end of this fall semester. Before I transfered to the university, I attended community college where I fullfilled all but 1 class to receive my AA in Business Admin. My question is should I take the last remaining class at community college for that AA or will it be meaningless considering I will have my Bachelors at the end of the year. The last required class for the AA from community college is Business Calculus.

Can't hurt, but it's meaningless on the whole imo. If you're in accounting your experience and/or being a CPA are all that really matters. (Depending on what part of accounting you get into)

EDIT: I'd do it because it's just one class and it's such a fvck up the ass to know that you only have one class left.

I'll probably stay in tax, which is where I work now.

Having the AA will mean squat when you have a Bachelor's degree in anything.

As a reference it would only be useful if the degree was in an entirely different area.
Where is is in Business Admin, the overlap would seem tp make the actual AA less important.

However, for your satisfaction, you may wish to get the AA so you can say you "completed" it.

Won't hurt since it's in a slightly different field, but it'd help more, probably, to actually minor in that instead of getting an AA. If you would be getting the AA in exactly the same major, it would be a complete waste of time.
