I have a Bachelor's Degree. Whoopee!

Edit: I'd also like to add that my parents didn't pay for it... It was all scholarship and my own hard work. Sometimes I think I'm more proud of doing it on my own than I am of the degree.

I am in my last semester of my masters right now. I graduate in two months.

I plan on getting a PhD but will take a break from school for a while... two bachelors and a masters and I'm sick and tired of school.

I don't think so!

No vote from me either until there is a "some college" choice. This would be for people who have some college, but not enrolled or planning on enrolling.

You sound like you're somehow insulted. Sorry, but in this poll, yes, high school is all you get. In fact, in "real life" high school is all you get too if that's what you've completed. And there's nothing wrong with that...

You're free to vote or not to vote, or to say you have more than you do if that's what makes you happy. Either way, do whatever makes you happy and don't get upset about it.

That's for Junior College.

Sorry but i think you left off an important field so I didn't vote
Once again, this is my poll that I created and I decided not to have a "some college" option. I'm not interested in "some college"; I'm interested to see what people have completed already. Why is this so difficult to understand? If you don't like my poll, then don't vote.

Dual undergrads...99% sure I'm heading to a MSc in a couple years related to watershed management, hydrology, or geomatics.

I think you spend too much time in college. Where's your sense of humor????

When is the last time you applied for a real job? Most of the applications I have filled out over the years, they want to know if you have " some college ", or trade school, etc... , so that is just as legitimate an answer as 2yrs, 4yrs, etc...



Nope, not offended, not in the least. Not here, no way, no how.

This isn't a job application. "Some college" doesn't matter here.

Have a Bachelor of Science in Management of Information Systems and work as a Systems Administrator for the school I graduated from. Going to go for either my MBA or MS in some computer-related field within the next few years.

Protip for all you younger guys: do anything and everything you can to avoid school loans. And never, ever, ever borrow more than you need.

You just did participate by commenting in my thread.

But thanks for not participating from this point forward.

As a side note, this thread wasn't intended to insult anyone. Anyone with a high school diploma, shouldn't get all butt hurt about it. That's why this is an anonymous poll.

So after 70 responses, approximately 50% of the people who responded have a BS or BA. That's what I expected, but I did think we'd have more people with a Masters degree.

I also expected to see a lot more people with trade school/tech school, especially considering the amount of people who are mechanics on the forum. When it comes to professional mechanics, most of them have some kind of trade school or tech school these days.

Are you addressing me? Your post is confusing because you start with "so jw" (whatever that means) and end with "doc".

Just in case you are addressing me, I'll say this:

Hmm....didn't think I said that again. Maybe you're reading posts from another day?

But hey, I'll keep repeating it until it sinks in to the people who can't seem to comprehend it.

i was addressing you. but in a dumb sarcastic way. people keep arguing that you should add a "some college" when you clearly stated earlier that this is an "at this very moment" poll a couple of times.
