, AMA ! Edit fixed link <| sep |> Shhh , he at least has good aerodynamics , unlike others . Lol . <| sep |> Atif Aslam few times in hostel , but it got too depressing I found the same tone and gloominess and with drinks it is a downward spiral . I avoid that slippery slope especially whilst having a drink or two . <| sep |> Fishy just launched retailer . Stay away <| sep |> Islander Porter from Prairie Pride Brewing . <| sep |> Your question has little to do with what I said , which makes me think you don ' t have a degree yet , but I ' ll answer anyway . nbspThe idea is that degrees prove a few things a You can work hard for an extended period of time and deliver results reliably this is possibly more important than the actual knowledge you pick up along the way . b You have at least a basic understanding of your field , have proven that you can learn to a series of teacher ' s satisfaction and are interested in the field . c You ' ve proven you have the basic skills needed from writing a report coherently , to following the basic guidelines of your field performing lab tests , or whatever is appropriate to just knowing the basic dangers pain points that would have to be taught to someone off the street . nbspI ' m probably leaving things out , but you get the idea , it ' s not always about whether you ' re the world ' s greatest expert it ' s about proving you have more basic skills reading comprehension , communication , professional level report creation , practice doing the core duties of the job coding lab work changing a sparkplug whatever , knowing all the vocabulary that ' s needed , etc . If you ' re bright and actually picked up a good thorough understanding of your field along the way too ? That ' s awesome and makes you more valuable , but it ' s often as much about the basics as it is about the advanced stuff .
