Salary is based on whatever someone is willing to pay you, and that is usually based on their perception of what you can accomplish for them. Salary, earning potential, and marketability are not only determined by the type of field you are in and the degree you possess. It depends on your position within that field, the institution you work for, your experience, expertise, personal abilities, critical thinking skills, problem solving abilities, dedication and commitment toward ones work, and more. Thus, salary is not so much dependent on the type of degree as much as it is dependent on the person who holds the degree. Still, if you have a specific occupational title, you can then retrieve the estimated mean annual wage particular to that occupation through the U.S. Department of Labor: Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Should you get a BA for a six year pharmacy college?

In the US, a pharmacy degree has always been a five- or six-year degree which begins right after high-school. So, then, a bachelors degree, first, typically isn't necessary. In the old days, it was a typically six-year-long "Bachelor of Pharmacy" or "Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy" degree; but the accreditor of all the pharmacy schools has changed the nomenclature such that it's now called a "Doctor of Pharmacy" (PharmD) degree. It is, however, a professional, and not an academic degree, and so it's not really at the academic doctoral level. It is, in fact, four years of undergraduate, or undergraduate-plus-post-baccalaureate-level study that begins immediately after a two-year academic associates degree. So, then, it's not an academic four-year bachelors degree that one needs before entering pharmacy school; but, rather, an academic two-year associates degree... ...then, from there, one enters the four-year "PharmD" program. A full six-year "PharmD" program may be entered right out of high school; or one may get one's associates degree (or finish the freshman and sophomore years of a bachelors degree) and then enter the four-year "PharmD" program. Either way will work. Of course, some people don't like the idea of never having gotten a proper bachelors degree before getting the PharmD degree. In that case, then, yes, one goes ahead and gets one's bachelors degree... on pretty much anything, really; and then, from there, depending on the pharmacy schoool, one gets an either three- or four-year-long PharmD degree. If one is absolutely certain that one will only ever be a pharmacist in life, then not getting a bachelors can work fine. But on the off-chance that one may end-up not becoming a pharmacist (or one quits pharmacy) after all in life, one really needs a bachelors degree to even get the kind of job that, twenty five years ago, a person with only an associates degree -- or maybe even only a high school diploma -- could get. So, bottom line, I always recommend getting the bachelors, no matter what. Just take the four years to get that first; and then, after that, enter whatever PharmD program one wants to enter... ...but that's just me. The bottom line is that a person may become a pharmacist, with a "PharmD" degree, six years after graduating from high school if one wants.


Do universities accept the credits of an AS degree to transfer to bachelor of a different major?

Answer 1: Yes. With most bachelors programs, the associate degree's major almost doesn't matter. All the bachelors program really cares about is whether or not the associates degree contains all of the right "lower division general education" (LDGE) courses.A two-year associates, remember, is equivalent to the first two (freshman and sophomore) years of a four-year bachelors. Said four-year bachelors requires certain LDGE of its freshman and sophomore students; and so it will be looking for approximately those same LDGE courses in the associates that's being transferred into it. That's really, when you get right down to it, all that the bachelors program cares about.And because you're asking about an AS degree -- which, by nature, contains more math and science courses than an AA degree -- then your AS degree will likely be quite acceptable as equal to the first two (freshman and sophomore) years of pretty much any either BA or BS degree program. If you had an AA, then it might not contain enough math/science for a BS degree; and so said BS program might require a couple additional math and science courses before it would let you become a full junior. But an AS degree would likely be acceptable to either a BA or BS program.So, you're probably okay.I could get into how, in some states, like California, for example, the transferring associates degree requirements of the two different state school systems (the California State University system versus the University of California system) are a little different; and so the associate degree seeker must be ever-mindful of which system into which s/he eventually intends to transfer his/her associates degree; and must, then, craft said associates degree so that it will meet the standards of whichever bachelors degree system s/he ultimately enters......but... oy!... that's beyond the scope of this question.


Does one get Graduate Diploma by special entry without having bachelor's degree In USA?

The US tends not to have "graduate diplomas by special entry." In the US, graduate work may typically not be begun until and unless all requisite undergraduate work is completed... and that usually means a bachelors degree.And so, then, in the US, one may not, for example, typically, enter a graduate either certificate (typically 12 to 18 semester credit hours in length), or masters degree (typically 32 to 48 semester credit hours in length) program until and unless one has completed one's undergraduate bachelors degree.But you mention a "graduate diploma," and the US tends not to have such things. But the UK has, at least in the past. In the UK, though, the whole certificate, then diploma, then degree thing is very different than it is in the US. For the benefit of those in the US who read this......a bachelors degree in the UK is typically only three years long (as opposed to the US's typical four-year-long bachelors degrees). And though this is an oversimplification, the reason is because the "lower division general education" (LDGE) that is typically found in the first year to year-and-a-half of a typical four-year US bachelors degree is covered in the UK by a thing called "GCE" or "GCSE" or "A-levels" or "O-levels," which are all courses which students take during or after high school, but before college. And so by the time the student enters a bachelors program in the UK, s/he has obtained the LDGE coursework that we, in the US, put into the first of the four years of the bachelors.The UK's system is kinda' better, in some ways, though, because even though the bachelors degree in the UK is only three years long, nearly every minute of it involves courses in whatever is the degree's major. A typical US four-year bachelors includes not only the LDGE, but also general electives, in addition to courses in the major. And if the US bachelors degree holder further dilutes the coursework in the major by adding coursework in a minor, then the US bachelors degree holder ends-up with actually less coursework in the major than do bachelors degree holders in the UK. And so it's fair to say that a UK three-year bachelors degree holder might (and I stress that word, because it all just depends on a lot of factors) be more learned in whatever is the UK degree's major than is the typical US four-year bachelors degree holder learned in whatever is his/her US bachelors degree's major.In any case, a person who enters a UK bachelors program, but who leaves it after completing only one year, gets a "certificate" in whatever is the UK bachelors degree's major. And if they leave the three-year bachelors program after only two years, then they get a "diploma" in it. Only if they stay all three years do they get the full bachelors degree in whatever is the major.Much the same thing is often true in the UK about its two-year masters programs. If they leave it after only a year, they get a "diploma" in whatever is the masters degree's major; and if they stay for the entire two years, then they get the actual masters degree. There are even some three-year masters in the UK which use the same "certificate" or "diploma" or "degree" plan as the UK bachelors degrees.We, in the US, have no equivalent to any of that. In the US, we have two-year associates degrees, four-year bachelors degrees (toward which the two-year associates can count for half), and two- or three-year (sometimes longer) masters degrees (and then, after that, doctoral-level graduate degrees). We also have both pre- and post-baccalaureate certificate programs, and graduate certificate programs. That's it. No diplomas. In the US, one's "diploma" is that which s/he got from his/her high school. My having written that, though, I'm sure someone will be able to think of a US school that offers "diplomas," but, seriously, those are rare. And they don't mean the same thing as what a "diploma" means in the US, in any case.The UK does, indeed, have "special entry" provisions for some of its educational credentials that could allow a person to obtain a graduate credential without having first gotten an undergradate one; however, that sort of thing varies greatly from school to school; and the QAA (the UK's educational quality assurance agency) is stronglly discouraging it except for a few special circumstances wherein a well-known graduate credential has always, by design, and from its outset, been available to even those with no undergraduate credentials... such as Heriot-Watt University's MBA, for example, just to name one.In the US, though, getting graduate-level credit or any kind before one has fully completed one's undergraduate work (in other words, before one has completely one's bachelors degree) is just so, so, so uncommon. It would have to be a very special circumstance, indeed! Most self-respecting graduate schools wouldn't even consider it.Someone reading this may be able to think of some exceptional school somewhere that allows it.

Is it best to go for associate or bacholers degree first?

You can choose to start with either if your intent is to obtain the bachelor's degree.An Associate degree (two year community college) is designed as a two year program of study as a full-time student provided the student takes the degree as prescribed by the college. Evidently it would take longer as a part-time student. Within the United States, the associates typically falls into three main categories; Associates of Arts (AA), Associates of Science (AS), and Associates of Applied Science (AAS). An associates of arts (AA), and associates in science (AS) degrees are typically designed for transfer to a four year college or university. Therefore, these degrees have a strong liberal arts emphasis and include a good balance of humanities, social science, and written communication along with the exact sciences especially in higher level math. They also have the foundational course work needed as prerequisites for the higher level courses at the four year institution. The AAS was typically designed as a terminal degree giving the student all the expertise needed to enter the workforce after completion of the degree. However, today, many AAS degree are transferable to four year institutions, but the student should meet with the transfer counselor for appropriate direction when it comes to the AAS degrees. Depending on the program of study and state mandates, the associates can take anywhere from 60 to 64 credits to complete. Some programs of study (usually within the health related fields) may take a bit more in credits.Four Year College or University LevelThe bachelor's degree (four year college or university) is designed as a four year program of study provided the student takes the degree as prescribed by the college or university. Again, part-time students will take longer to complete the degree. How long it would take depends on the credit load taken per semester. Basically, within the United States there are two common categories; Bachelors of Arts (BA), and Bachelors of Science (BS). It depends on the institution and department within the school as to which focus they prefer.The BA has a broader scope, with a strong emphasis on the humanities, theoretical and general knowledge in a recognized discipline, interdisciplinary field, or of a professional study.The BS is more of a focused approach with a science base to include a balance of liberal arts, technological knowledge, math and computer oriented skills, and practical skills needed for a particular discipline within the field.The number of credits required depends on the program of study. In general, the bachelors can take between 120 and 128 credits to complete. Some programs of study may take more. For example, architecture. The following are some differences between community colleges, and four year colleges and universities.Community CollegeMany individuals start at the community college level for a variety of reasons to include:Community colleges are less expensive to start out with. You can cut the cost of a four year degree almost in half by starting at a community college first, and then transferring to four year college or university to finish up the last two years.There are typically smaller classroom sizes at the community college with a better professor to student ratio, which means more individualized attention.Some students do not meet the entrance requirements of the four year college or university, thus they start at the community college first, then transfer later.The community colleges are typically more family oriented, with a strong sense of community.Some students like to be close to home, thus they start at their home county community college.Four Year Colleges and UniversitiesFour year institutions are usually larger, with a number of activities not offered at the community college level. For example, fraternities, and sororities, college football, etc.Some colleges may have top name lecturers, within large lecture halls which are preferred by many students.Some individuals like the four year institutions environment (the university atmosphere).There are students who can major in special program curriculums not offered by the community college.In the end, it is a matter of preference.


Which three blood vessels carries blood at the highest pressure?

Blood pressure is highest at the Aorta. BP progressively decreases as it enters arterioles, capillaries, venules, then increases upon reaching the vena cavae. So basically it's the Aorta, and the Inferior and Superior Vena Cava.

Why does ice remains at 0 degree for a long time?

Ice remains at zero degrees C for a long time because all of the heat energy that enters the ice goes into MELTING it, and not into increasing the temperature. Once all the ice is melted, then any more heat energy that enters the system will begin to raise the temperature.


What names may a monk choose when he enters monastery?

In most monasteries, he may not chose, he is assigned a name when he makes his novice profession. Some monasteries will give you a choice, I know that you make submit a list of three names to the Archabbot at St. Vincent, and he will usually choose from one of those, but the whole point of the monastic life is that you are giving up your own will in everything - you don't even "own" your own body after profession.
