Thank you for expressing your opinion.

Thank you too!

Let me put it in a different context. I am a scientist by trade, but my degree in Business administration is an MBA. I never received a BS in Business, yet I believe it is fair to say that I have a degree in business.

I had to complete the core courses required of a BA plus the higher level Master courses in Business, much as I expect Paul completed core undergraduate courses in biology, but I was never formally awarded a BA in Business.

Would you agree that I can freely say that I have a degree in Business?

FReegards!

No, but that doesn’t mean that you lack in talent or expertise. A degree is no real measure of either.
