A Bachelor’s degree is basically an advanced high school degree now.

I find that a high school diploma from the 70’s and before are FAR MORE educated than the kids with a BA degree today!!! That is a FACT!!!

“A Bachelor’s degree is basically an advanced high school degree now.”

I finished high school in 1962. Young people with a Bachelor’s degree cannot pass my EIGHTH grade final in most cases. I doubt you could find one who could pass my high school final if his life depended on it. A Bachelor’s degree is an “advanced” high school degree now only if you are comparing it to recent high school graduates, it won’t reach the level of a high school diploma received prior to 1970.

If you are speaking of a Bachelor with a major in history or the english language they would be laughed out of a tenth grade classroom in 1962. Those of us who are over sixty now shake our heads in wonder at the pathetic ignorance of history and language currently on display.

My BS in Pharmacy was no advanced high school degree. But I'm not that impressed with the 'PharmD' kids coming out now, nor the $150,000 in debt they are for a $120,000 dollar job.
