Not really, not in my field anyways Larry Send a noteboard - 10/08/2010 04:06:22 AM
Usually, it's 5 years for BA, 2-3 for MA these days. I was the youngest grad student in my first and I believe second years in my program. Conversely, if I had stayed in my program and earned my Ph.D. after 3-4 years, I would have been way ahead of the curve, since there usually aren't many Ph.D.'s at 25-26. But I burned out due to taking so many classes in so short of a span, coupled with being only 17 when I registered for classes my first year of undergrad classes.

And if I were to look at that joke called a grad degree in Education, well...the age is skewed even higher than it is in History and most other fields.

In the US you're supposed to graduate college at 22. - 10/08/2010 06:19:43 AM 560 Views
I've always claimed every year I could when teaching - 09/08/2010 09:51:45 PM 607 Views
I try to hold off on aging... it's odd to be still in my BA while 24 years old. - 10/08/2010 12:05:32 AM 645 Views
Especially since I had already earned my MA by 23 - 10/08/2010 01:29:06 AM 576 Views

That hasn't been my experience. There are many 1 year MA programs now. - 10/08/2010 08:09:13 AM 467 Views
