Unh ?
Which is ?

Congrats anyway :wink: !

Ok, I don’t really know all the college abbreviation stuff yet, but did you get a bachelor of engineering in communication systems (honors)?. And what’s 2 :1

Anyways, congrats. What school?

wow very cool! congratgs!

For the non-English then, a quick guide to degrees. :slight_smile: The Bachelor degree is the first level of Higher Education (University) and generally the courses last for three years.

BA - Bachelor of Arts
BSc - Bachelor of Science
BEng - Bachelor of Engineering
BEd - Bachelor of Education

From there, you can go on to get a Masters degree (1 year), so an MA, MSc etc. Then there’s a final Doctorate, which is the PHd.

Honours (Hons) is basically the full degree. If you don’t quite pass the degree, you don’t get the (Hons) bit, to my knowledge. :slight_smile:

The way it’s graded is:

1 - First class
2:1 - Upper Second class
2:2 - Lower Second Class
3 - Third class

With First obviously being the highest.

So I got a 2:1 BSc(Hons) in Computer Science. :beam:

Congratulations on yours. :slight_smile:

in USA,

12 yrs school - graduate High School @ ~18
2 yrs college - graduate with Associates Degree
~4 yrs college - graduate with Bachelors Degree

:-\ stares at the above text for a few minutes… What?

Ma quande lingues coalesce, li grammatica del resultant lingue es plu simplic e regulari quam ti del coalescent lingues. Li nov lingua franca va esser plu simplic e regulari quam li existent Europan lingues. It va esser tam simplic quam Occidental: in fact, it va esser Occidental. A un Angleso it va semblar un simplificat Angles, quam un skeptic Cambridge amico dit me que Occidental es.Ma quande lingues coalesce, li grammatica del resultant lingue es plu simplic e regulari quam ti del coalescent lingues.
