Any half-decent MBA program will have coursework on how to evaluate problems that seem "hard to calculate".
Nobody needs an MBA, or a CompSci degree, or any Univesity degree for that matter. But that's not to say that there aren't many skills that the programs will teach you. Is it stuff you can learn on your own? Sure, just like anything else. But there's no replacement for class-time and actual discussion and interaction.
I've spent quite a few years on these boards; there seems to be many people who mock MBAs, but conversely I'd say the financial (and sales and marketing) literacy is no better here than average, even though this place is chock-full of entrepreneurs.
