I will never understand that question sitting in europe.

If anyone is interested in a personal anecdote, I’ve been in this industry coming up on 10 years now, and I still think my MS was worth it.

I’ve always risen to the top of resume stacks in part because of it, and I also learned a lot of concepts and strategies that I never came across in my BS, and lastly, I found a lot of the course work and research fascinating and interesting! I was able to do a special program that included multiple summers but I graduated in 5 years with a BS and MS in CS, never looked back.

I felt much more confident entering the job market with it as well.

Does anyone have any experience working towards a master's without a bachelor's? I only got as far as data structures in undergrad, but would like to go for a master's if possible
