felt that to become a real trader myself i'd have to get more finance education.

Advanced degrees typically offer little advantage for physical trading careers--only boon I see is that if the university has a more sophisticated career program that attracts more employers. I'd concentrate on getting an analyst role and build work experience rather than another degree.
