Question
what are some pros and cons with choosing one degree over the other?  bachelor's vs associates

Answer
An associates degree is two years of college and with limit you in some jobs.  Many jobs require a bachelors degree which is the completion of for years of college.  Some students get an associates degree at a community college and then go on to a four year school and finish their final two years of college.  If you want to go on and get further education after high school, but don't want to spend four years, an associates degree might be right for you, especially if you are looking at a job that only requires that.  A bachelors degree will always be helpful and something you will never regret having.
