ENEB Master Thread

[BadSquirrelBeta]

The only possibly detectable way is that for the test all classes will get the same grade, while most people do not get the same grade for the essay format.

Yeah. And most employers aren't going to go that far when researching a candidate's original credentials when they have the degree equivalency (or QR verification) right there. Anyone who's worried should do the homework though.

Just my opinion. I am not a fan of the test format. I just completed my 4th Masters with ENEB. I did the Essay Format. Here in the USA, it is very difficult to promote your Masters credential as achieved by a test. All Colleges/Universities will ask for a letter grade [most assuredly with a FCE Report], and in most cases they will ask for a few writing samples; especially for Doctoral admissions or transfer into an equal US Masters program.

Second, when it comes to employers, licensing, and State/Federal employment, again, while some may not ask, many will ask for a letter grade and a body of academic work that shows you have graduate-level writing, comprehension and skills. 

Testing for a Masters may work in other parts of the world, but it is very much shunned & scrutinized here in the USA.

I am right there with you my friend!  It was a personal commitment of mine to do the essay format, and keep it up after the test options came about, too.

If someone does the exam format and that is the best for them, then great.  Me, I'm just old school and I knew I would learn if I worked hard and invested in the assignments, as that was my personal bar for success in feeling good about the program completions.  I'm not in a career field where writing samples of an academic nature would be required, even though I was faculty for a licensed, private vocational school in the US for a number of years.

Congrats, too, by the way on your recent degree!  I am right where you are with no more Masters I am planning on pursuit, like your no more Bachelors rule!  But collecting degrees isn't a bad thing...I guess I'll start beefing up on cats.  LOL won't that make everyone in my house happy?!
