How many multiple choice questions does it take to earn your degree? - RespectableGent - 11-01-2009

Remember, at Charter Oak (RA) you can earn a degree in under three hours with a single GRE test.

Here are my thoughts on the matter -

Diploma Mill: 0

Degree Mill: 1 - 50

Substandard: 50 - 200

Unaccredited: 300 - 500

Accredited: 500+

I think Excelsior College is the only school to earn a second degree with a single subject GRE. Don't they have about 130 questions?

Huh. That's funny. I assumed that the "gold standard" had a little more integrity than that.

There is an honest exchange. You do 130 multiple choice questions AND write them a cheque for about $2,000 and they mail you a degree. Did someone actually lead you to believe that regional accreditation had anything to do with quality? And you believed them?
