Not necessarily. You can have a MS in Math and a MA in Math for example. They're completely different.

Not really - I have an "MS", not an MA.  My guess is Mike has the German equivalent of an MS.


That's right, I didn't notice Mike said his degree was in computer science. But aren't Master of Science and Master of Arts the same degree, just given for different kind of specialities? (Exact sciences for the first and humanities / social sciences the second.)

Currently studying English. I'm planning on moving to Portland after I graduate to become an unemployed hipster.

Google it, and you'll find all possible versions ... Wacko

BTW: At my (German) university it's simply called "Diplom" - which is roughly equivalent to a master's degree.


It's Master's degree.

I was actually asked this question in court recently.  I hope I got it right.

Its a trick poll. High School is the highest because it is the only one with "high" in it. Except for "Less than high school" which is obviously not as high. I'm smart!

Who knows when I'll complete my BA or what it will be in. I'll at least be able to get an associates in music technology or something. I know I'm smart enough and have enough experience in college to have a degree, but the stupid f**king credit appraisal and transfer system, man. *takes another drink*
My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want!
