Just wondering what the community's thoughts are on the various finance certifications (eg, CFA, CAIA, FRM) as opposed to B-School. On the one hand, the certifications are cheaper. On the other hand, it seems like a top tier MBA still has lots of value.

Which do you all think is worthwhile?

Thanks in advance!

I think this all depends on what you see yourself doing. You need to identify your goals and then lay out what you believe the best course it to reach them.
