I know it’s doable and plenty of people do it… but not everybody chooses that route. I didn’t.
My comment was directed at the post that a B.A. is bare minimum. You know, you work your butt off for that piece of paper, and you eventually get a job, and then you have someone come along and dismiss it as nothing. I encounter this attitude repeatedly, but only from our desi community.
Anyway, I digress. Sorry for going off topic.
