Would it be better to get an AAS in Accounting or a Master's degree after a nonbusiness undergrad?
or a second bachelor's degree in Accounting?

It would depend on what your future goals are. If you would like to become a CPA, an AAS degree would not fulfill the requirements needed. On the other hand, if your goals are general business related, an AAS could be enough.

Where can I get an online Master's degree in Accounting
Where can I get an online Master's degree in Accounting?
Right now I have plenty of time to focus on the degree and would like to see if I can complete the program in 3-6 months rather than the customary 1-2 years. I have a financial background, but no accounting. Where should I look to find this? Obviously I also want a good education.

There is no Master's degree you can finish in that period of time, unless you do a mail order scam. In addition, the Master of Accountancy is generally not necessary for working in the field, and very few institutions offer it. What you are probably looking for is an MBA with an accountancy focus, since that is the more common route. If you have no background in accounting, you are going to have a very difficult time being accepted to a reputable graduate program. Graduate programs require you to have at least some undergraduate work or relevant experience in the field. Also keep in mind that most reputable on-line MBA programs are geared towards mid-career working professionals. I would urge you to enroll in some introductory accounting courses at your local community college and get those under your belt before you consider doing anything else. (As someone planning on going into accounting, surely you understand how important it is to find out whether something is a worthwhile investment!) Then you can start thinking about MBAs; I'm assuming you already have a Bachelor's. Some programs you may want to consider for an on-line MBA in accounting are Regis University ( http://www.mbaregis.com/degrees-fin-acct.php ), UMass-Lowell ( http://www.umassonline.net/degrees/Online-Degree-Master-Business-Administration-Lowell.cfm ), Drexel University ( http://www.drexel.com/ ), University of Maryland-University Campus ( http://www.umuc.edu/programs/grad/msafm ; it's an M.S. degree), or Western Governors ( http://www.wgu.edu/business/master_business_administration_degree ). Note that most of them also offer on-line Bachelor's degrees in accounting. You should not go anywhere *near* the University of Phoenix, Kaplan, Penn Foster, or any other for-profit enterprises like those.

IQ doesn't significantly matter when it comes to such things, as long as yours is normal. It's your engagement, curiosity, technical knowledge and experience that really matters.

Competence is Senior to IQ. There are many low IQ people who are brilliant at their highly skilled jobs. Then there are those with stellar IQ's and are bumbling idiots at their job. Of course all people are different. So some people with similar competence levels and IQ's would find either of these jobs easy, or hard, depending on their individual ability and attitude. There are some good quotes on handling a profession on the website www.QuotesToShare.com that might help bring more insight into this question. David

Usually people study so much, for one reason, that is to become a professor. If you don't want to be professor, don't bother with the Master of Accounting. Actuarial Science is very difficult and jobs are very few, if your school allow tons of people to study such a course, you will graduate without a job in view.
