Buying a College Degree

There is always a for and against for this type of thing. Basically it is unfair and in this days speak, deception. Against. You don't do the studies you fail, you buy a degree. out you go into the world with your newly purchased (medical)degree and you go off and kill a few patients due to incompetence brought on by not passing your exams because you were no good in the first place. If you manage to get away with it, the people in authority who took you on are left to carry the can. On the other hand there are people who are rubbish at exams but very good in their field. These people could be compared to professionals who in times gone did not have to write exams or get certificates. Rather, they were apprenticed to practitioners who taught them every thing they knew. I think there should be some kind of approval for these lot so they do not have to go out to buy a certificate to practice. If my practioner had a history of satisfied customers, I would not care if they were certified or not. It is the pretence of legitimate certification that I object to.

I will never do so. and most importantly, what is the value of the degree when you have no talent. It is waste to have that degree. whoever did it, they will be caught by officials.

Absolutely not! I would want to know that my doctor did well in his studies and actually passed all the tests, legitimately, to ensure he had a degree. Someone who wants to be a doctor and simply buys the degree is not a real doctor, that is a con artist pretending to be a doctor. I like my life and would definitely not want to risk it with someone whose credentials were fake!

What wonderful ideas are coming from our newbies! Welcome. I've had a couple of doctors I wondered about, frankly. Once (only) I went to a dentist a friend of mine said was realy good. I left with a bunch of cotton and stuff still in my mouth! Yep; that bad! I don't know where you're from, so you might not know about a couple hundred advanced degrees held by higher-ups in our school system were found to have been purchased. It sounds like stereotyping, but I swear it's true: more than half were coaches. These people throw mud on all the honest people who actually earned their degrees!

not at all....i feel that's an offence and these kinda matters should be given a nemisis very strongly...if people become lawyer or accountant etc...then what kind of credits to be given to the real ones,who have studied well and achieved things in this world..buying a degree is a crime..

I will be comfortable if they are experienced well, one thing is that it's alright being not so good in school what matters is their hearts willingness to do their job well.
