Aren't we all still learning? Education isn't bound to any height.

Neither is vanity.

you are correct. I forgot to add the "School of Life" option. But the title is so because it is the same as what is asked is many questionaires.

You also have a Ph.D. in constantly looking hotter than other women of your age. Oh shit, this line has been used already.

Who else put PhD? Who are the doctors here?

I technically have two bachelor degrees, although the bachelor of education is no degree at all as far as I'm concerned. But you're goddamned right I'm milking it. "I have two degrees" sounds way better than "I wasted five years in university."

:D I am not an INTP, but I am going to participate. I have a Masters in Education, and like Biff, a worthless Bachelor's degree, and I am working on an Ph D currently. Although you guys/girls may not have graduate degrees, you sure fooled me. Although, I know a degree is not an indicator of intelligence... but you are some of the wittiest, and most intelligent people I have messaged in a long time.

I didn't see anything marking it as "INTPs only," so I answered as well. I have a Bachelor's degree. I don't actually have a high school diploma so I didn't mark that one (homeschool-- I did the GED on my 16th birthday so I could start getting credit at a JC but I had audited university classes for two years already). I would like to get a Masters in Social Work next, and then, who knows? But I forgot to mark the last category (would like to get one of the above blah blah blah).

Bachelor of Laws (Hons).

I'd like to do a Law Masters one day, but also want to do writing/poetry courses. At the moment the latter idea is gripping my interest more.

Uhh... to tell the truth and shame Melancholeric, I only have a Master's Degree, actually. I have a bachelor's in Political Science and Masters in Urban Studies. I have been an Airport Planner for 15 years, but lost my job recently due to hurricane Katrina.

Edit: I didn't vote so as to not mess up the INTP purity of the poll.

I live in the UK, so the system is a little different here.

I finished Secondary School at 16, so the closest equivalent would be a highschool diploma. I left with a handful of bad to average grades.

Oh its something mikhael gorbachev said, because he didn't know the right english words for making a toast "Bottoms Up". I thought it was funny. Doesn't mean much, but if you or other girls wanna try a few things to the effect of "up your bottoms" go ahead.

Exactly! And when I'm filling out any kind of questionnaire I can check the "Dr." box, which is better than having the moral dilemma of deciding between Ms. and Miss since I obviously won't be married.

Friends and teachers in high school used to call me "Doctor D[rest of last name]," so it's pretty much my destiny.

I'm in a Ph.D. program, however my marks probalby aren't going to be good enough to take the qualifying exams, so they will probalby kick me out after I finish my Masters.

i hold a master’s degree in archival science. i like it okay but would rather manage the archive...believe it or not…i would get to do more tweaking and fixing than technical rigormarole.

but since such managerial positions exist mainly in state and federal repositories i don’t see myself moving in that direction.

i would like to move into content management. the pay is better and the opportunities to tweak are greater.

I have a bachelor's of science in biology. I would love to go back to school to get a master's or even a Ph.D. In what I do not know. I have considered everything from a J.D. to a Ph.D. in clinical psych to an M.S. in biotechnology. I hope eventually I actually act on these desires!

I'm currently in college, but I definately plan on going to Med. school (unless I'm consumed with nihilism), OR a constant backpacker/traveler/free-lance journalist/whatever else I want. THe second option is looking more and more appealing, lol--but I don't think I have the balls to pull that off.
What used to be a "high school" diploma, is now worth a college diploma. What used to be college, is now grad. school. Maybe in the future, grad school will be like high school, and post grad (interships) will be like college? THat would be the day I start being a hobo.
