I have a BS in biochemistry.  I have become very interested in
geography and am thinking of getting a masters.  The school that I am
considering only offers a MA.   I know that some schools offer a MS,
but the MA program that I am considering has the same requirements as
the MS programs that I have seen.  Does it make much difference to
have a MA rather than a MS?  The reason I ask is because I know in
physical sciences like chemistry a MA isn't taken as seriously as a
MS.  Right now, I am considering this as my terminal degree.  I may
change my mind later.   Will I be able to get a good job with a MA
(preferably in the southern US along the gulf coast) ?  What areas are
the best in terms of job availabilty?  How much can one earn with a
masters?

Any help would be appreciated
