Women with Advanced Degrees More Likely To Get Divorced

The Wall Street Journal reports that Women M.B.A.s are twice as likely to divorce as are their male counterparts.  To a lesser degree, the same thing applies for women with law or medical degrees.

I suppose that it’s not surprising that advanced degrees prompt more divorces.  After all, more intense and stressful work — especially in careers that demand lots of overtime — is bound to be make things more difficult at home. 

So watch out women — a professional degree appears to be very hazardous to your marriage!
