How much work is it getting a degree in marketing?

[extremenerd]

A degree in marketing should not be too difficult assuming that it is something you enjoy.

As a career, much depends on the type of marketing in which you specialize. Some forms of marketing, such as market research can be fairly complex with large teams of people working on a project (psychologists, social scientists, pollsters, mathematicians, etc.). Other forms, such as market analysis, can be fairly mind-numbing, cruching numbers for hours on end in the attempt to establish meaningful statistics from the raw data.

Hope this helps!
