AndresKiani Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 I don't hold a degree of anything, but I'm interested to know at what age did you guys attain your first 4 year degree?
Ophiolite Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 I had completed my finals when I was twenty one, but graduated when I had just turned twenty two.
AndresKiani Posted December 14, 2014 Author Posted December 14, 2014 I had completed my finals when I was twenty one, but graduated when I had just turned twenty two. Very good, I assume you majored in physics correct? I see you in the physics subforum quiet often. Have you been content with that choice?
ajb Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 23 I think by the time it was all finished and I actually graduated. Are you asking because you are now thinking about going down that route?
Ophiolite Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 Very good, I assume you majored in physics correct? I see you in the physics subforum quiet often. Have you been content with that choice? Good heavens no. I am almost wholly ignorant of physics, though I did one year of it at university. My degree is in Geology, with minors in Chemistry, Botany and Geography. My maths is too poor to be any good at physics and I'm too lazy to rectify it.
John Cuthber Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 My degree was 4 years, but that's unusual here in the UK, most are 3 I was 22 when I finished it.
MigL Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 At 21. I was thinking of doing a Master's ( MSc ) in Solid State Physics ( but didn't ) so I didn't apply to graduate until i was 23.
hypervalent_iodine Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 I had finished my BSc the day before I turned 22 and honours the next year. If my high school path had been different and I hadn't of needed to take a gap year to get citizenship, I would have been just shy of 20 when I finished. I'm glad it turned out how it did, in retrospect.
ACG52 Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 21. Oh my god, I just realized that was 41 years ago. 2
Vexen Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Still doing my undergraduate. I'm hoping to do my postgraduate in genetics. Who is doing their postgraduate?
Strange Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Never! (I did study for a Masters degree in my 40s but somehow managed to avoid getting the qualification despite getting very good marks in all the exams and course work ...)
Vexen Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Never! (I did study for a Masters degree in my 40s but somehow managed to avoid getting the qualification despite getting very good marks in all the exams and course work ...) Why? My destination is research.
Ophiolite Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Why? My destination is research. Strange is answering the question "At what age did you attain your bachelors in science?" His reply is "Never." He is not suggesting this is an appropriate choice for others.
Strange Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Strange is answering the question "At what age did you attain your bachelors in science?" His reply is "Never." He is not suggesting this is an appropriate choice for others. Exactly. (And, even though I hadn't thought of that final corollary, I agree with it.)
Greg H. Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 I finished my BS in 2006 and my MS in 2010. Both are in Information Systems Management.
