Currently a third year at the McIntire School of Commerce at the University of Virginia, majoring in Finance and Marketing. I plan on attending either law school or an MBA program after two years of work (so the business I work for can help with the tuition bills).
 
I know there are a load of MD's and Ph.D's in this place......those would be real Ph.D's too......not the 3 year things some countries hand out.

I'm a trainee teacher in the UK (we hand out pointless 3 year Ph.D's like confetti over here!! :)).

what if you graduated high school but never started college? there isn't any selection for that. i'll go to college someday though, and take the last two or three classes needed to get my degree after all my military experience is transfered to civilian ed.
 
Is it a coincidence that there are a lot of people with computer backgrounds on a fitness board? Or is it just because all the computer literate people know where to find good info on the internet?
 
BA in Political Science (Major)
Minor in Sociology.

Was going to go to Law School but took a 6 month intensive course in Multimedia and now own a company in that field.

why do you think we picked the major, so we can play all day on the Internet !!...:)
 
I've got one or two semesters left on my Philosophy and English degrees. Should have the Philosophy by now, but I took 7 classes that I didn't need. Oops.
 
I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree 3 years ago. I double majored in Advertising and Business Administration, and received a minor in Art. I am currently back in the swing of school again, I should receive my Bachelors degree in Manufacturing Engineering with an emphasis in Materials Chemistry next year.

I'm not impressed by fancy degrees. I've met people with high school educations who educated themselves all through life and these people became some of my best friends. Not to take away from any one who busted their ass for their degree, but it doesn't always mean you are better educated.

I agree with you 100% BigSatan.....I have learned the most in the struggles I have overcame in life!! :)

I couldn't agree with you more . I am a high school dropout and run a succesull business . I learned from real life role models who had their own business and by doing a ton of reading on business plans and attending many business seminars. most of my friends have college degrees and they all work in low paying jobs. Self education is the best form of education. College doesn't even compare to what you can learn on your own.

I'd agree with this to a certain extent. Some of the most intelligent people I've ever met have had no formal education. Additionally, I've encountered plenty of morons while I was in college(And I went to a quite well regarded school.) Intellectually curious, intelligent people will be smart no matter what, and the stupid and intellectually lazy will be morons no matter what degree(s) they may possess. The amount of schooling one has gone through has surprisingly little to do with things.
 
school...

I am in my fifth year of college...
I am an English/Education major at FSC in MA. I will never be done!! Just took a final tonight. I am working full time to put myself through school and have been since I began. Hard, but eventually worth it.
 
I have an MD degree and am pursuing a fellowship in cardiovascular medicine. One thing I have definitely learned is that the letters behind the name don't make the person. I haev MD colleagues who I would not let treat my dead dog.

I find college degrees to be more of a representation of an individual's desire and abilities to learn, and not necessarily a symbol of actual knowledge attained. If an individual is really motivated they can bust their ass in high school to earn scholarships (assuming money is an issue for college). It almost seems as if there no excuse to end your education at the high school level. This is, of course, a huge generalization and my opinions, I'm sure, are very biased...
 
Started at a community college dropped out courses sucked can't stand wading through all the crap courses where you learn nothing and it takes forever.

Studying on my own now, year an a half out of HS

CCNP, CCDP, Net+, A+, MCP, MSCE and MCSA by January.
 
Working on my BA in psychology, transferring to a state university in a year to get my MSW (so I can do psychotherapy from my home if I want to otherwise I would have a MS in psychology). But my big goal (I will be in school FOREVER it seems, but worth it) is to get my PhD in health psychology with emphasis on sexual dysfunction, oncology, and neurology.
