I have two BA's (one in English and one in Linguistics) and am working on my Science of Instruction MS (just Education, they have to make it fancy sounding so it can be an MS and not an MA
) doing K-6 and also a certification in ESL instruction.
Our household is kind of overflowing... the two of us will have at least six degrees between us; SO has a MA and is getting his PhD. I plan to get one too in a couple decades.

I have a technical degree I guess after completing the program at one of the best welding schools in the US at the top of my class with perfect attendance. At one point, I had enough credits to have an associates degree, but they weren't in the right classes I think.
I have an AA General Studies which was paid for with a sports scholarship.
I also have a BS double major in Biology/Medical Technology. My student loans will be paid off this month!!

well, my highest degree is my B.S. but i also have a type of technical degree, as well. i was a travel agent for 15 years before returning to college for my B.S. in education.
I have a good old High School Diploma. Nothing more, nothing less. But I did run my husbands general contracting business for 5 years and now I'm homeschooling my monkeys (some people call them children). I would like to one day get my RN (nursing license) to help in a free medical clinic in Africa but that won't happen for a few more years because my kids are young and my focus is on their education right now.
Natalie - a B.S. is a 4 year degree, as is a B.A. - the difference is in the specialty. for example, my sister has her Bachelor of Arts [B.A.] as her field of study was in the Arts - music. mine is a Bachelor of Science [B.S.] in "multidisciplinary studies"
what was your field of study in college? if it was business, or business-related [accounting, computing, etc.] then a college in the states would most likely issue you a B.S.

I'm working on getting my G.E.D. I dropped out of school in the 9th grade....one of my worst mistakes.
Stay in school kids!

It would be in history, I need to check on it.
You don't necessarily have to have a Masters. Not in Australia anyway... The requirements for a PhD program in Australia are generally this:
Applicants would normally hold: a Bachelors degree with at least 2A Honours (or equivalent) or a Master degree by research or a Master degree by coursework that included substantial research or have satisfactorily completed a PhD qualifying program in their chosen area of study.
I'm working on a technical degree for automotive technology, although I'm not sure whether or not I'll keep following it when I return to school next year. I enjoy my current job, and that has nothing at all to do with it! I'm a lab technician at an environmental chem lab, so I've been thinking about pursuing a degree in science now.
I have a BA cum laude in psychology and distinction in all subjects from Cornell University. I use those exact words because I had to do 2 years of research, write a thesis on my research, and defend the thesis in order to get those words on my diploma. They still mean a great deal to me.
I then got a Masters of Business Administration from the University of Michigan. My major was in management information systems with a finance minor.
I spent my professional career working with management information systems. I just traded human memory for computer memory.
BTW, in my professional career in systems, I came across a customer with the same last name as my undergrad honors professor who is Dr. Ulric Neisser. Turns out the customer is his brother. Go figure.

I have a BA in English, which I have done nothing with. (yeah, by my posts, I bet you couldn't guess I majored in English!
) I picked that because I love to read and write and needed to declare a major. I would love to go back to school but not for a Masters. I would want to do a short specialized course that would train me for one particular thing (ie, vet assistant, legal assistant, etc). I just don't know what I want to be when I grow up!

I have my AS in nursing and my BS in nursing. Next year, I think I am going to start on my Master's in nursing. I just can't decide what track to take-- administration, education, something else all together
.
I think I have the canadian Equivalent of an AA/AS Degree which is a 2 year college degree. I have mine in Archives and Records management from Algonquin and a Partial Degree in Collections Conservation management from Sir. Sanford Flemming
