my wife's education exceeded the typical 2/3 (high school/university) regimen. Her 10+ years of teaching experience (life experience) may have contributed to the evaluation she received.                           

You are still clouding the issue.

You talk about 'education' but then seem to be adding in 'work experience' that made the education exceed 2/3.

i.e.  Most people say something like . . . I had 4 years of college and have worked for 20 years.  They don't infer that they have 24 years of education.

Sure we all understand that work and other life experiences are valuable, but we don't lump them all together.

Of course we are beating this to death, and you are under no obligation to answer, but . . .

It would be nice if you would just state if she did in fact have additional years of course work education (not work experience in education) beyond the 2/3.

My only original intent was to throw water on idea that someone might think that the 5 year diploma would translate into a bachelor and masters degree in USA.

You have clouded up the issue greatly with your shifting definition of what education your wife had that was evaluated.

You are not the first to have done this . . . but let's hope the last.
A beautiful woman is pleasant to look at, but it is easier to live with a pleasant acting one.

So I challenge anyone to post here photos of the 5 year diploma and the evaluation showing bachelors and masters degree equivalent.  Black out the names of course.


My wife's 5 yr diploma was evaluated as a bachelor and masters degree (she was eval. as a PhD in math and physics). It all depends on the university. The top universities WILL be evaluated as a masters. As you know not all universities are created equal, especially in the FSU. This is why employers and colleges demand an evaluation.


And there's no way in hell I'd post my wife's degrees here.
Life ain't nothing but a poker game
And no two hands are quite the same
But I never saw a winner that didn't bet

ML,


I did not "cloud" any issue. I stated in ADDITION to my wife's "life experience"......her "formal" education exceeded the typical 2/3 college education. Don't get personal. You want to start questioning my integrity? Some guys seem to do that .....from behind the safety of their computer. I am only here (on this forum) to help. What are you here for?
