MBA doesn’t require heavy math. I’ve participated in some program design meetings for business ed., and the professionals said that it’s really not necessary for business managers to know how to create a spreadsheet or how to calculate statistics–they just need to know enough about accounting and stats to be able to interpret the results.

So if you know enough from accounting to be able to look at a report and tease out the important numbers and what they mean–if you understand what conclusions can reasonably be drawn from correlation and break-points and significant differences–then you’re MBA material.
