    Con law wasn't until year 2 at my school!
    I did a masters in public health and a couple years of law school. I'd say both were a waste of time and money since I'm a sahm now and plan on staying at home full time for .. Who knows how long. :T
    We'll see though..

    Yup, I went for 1 year (1 summer session, fall and spring) and got my MSW. I use it every day. I am really glad I went to grad school right after undergrad and didn't wait.

    Same as @babynumber1:. I got my BA in Social Work in December, and in August I started grad school. I graduated with a Master of Social Work the following the December. So, 15 months. It was an accelerated program because I had my BASW from an accredited undergrad program. I use it every single day and am so glad I went. It was an amazing experience, both personally and professionally.

    @Mrs.M57: I have my M.Sc. in occupational therapy too! I did a 4 year undergraduate program though.

    @tequiero21: I just read everything that looks interesting! I have been cursed with very specific interests, so I just buy every book in those categories.

    No, I didn't feel like it would have helped my career in any way so I never went. I think it would have been a waste of money.

    I did! I got a Masters of Education in Gifted and Talented Education. I'm really glad that I did it before I was married and had kids. I couldn't imagine doing that with everything else. Hubby and I were dating the last year of school, but it worked out.

    Yup. I have a master of accounting. Most states require you to have a masters, or at least the equivalent hours it would take to earn a masters, as one of the requirements to be a certified public accountant. I couldn't have gotten my job without my CPA license, so it was definitely worth it. I'm a SAHM now, but I plan to go back to work, and having my masters degree and license will make that significantly easier.
