Accounting, econ, and finance are the 2nd-4th most common undergrad diplomas held by MBAs, with marketing in 6th; the T25[1] schools might differ. Culturally, the stereotypical MBA is dissimilar to the CPA listed in the phone-book, usually landing in the sales, marketing, finance, or similar deparment of a medium-to-large enterprise. Those that give MBA a bad rep for arrogance, incompetence, and backstabbing don't develop an intrinsic skill-set or start self-funded companies[2]. Instead, they rely on being recruited by an established corporation or leaning on rich-people family connections.

Accountants?

Responding both to you and the preceding comment:

My mistake, thank you.
