Honest question, how much of that was because you'd spent your BS building a foundation and the masters was built on that?

Obviously, I'm making a few assumptions here, and I don't even have a diploma so I'm not sure what a BS is, unless of course, you've got a masters in BS - in which case, there's some great shitposting you could be doing :)

It's a Masters in civil engineering transportation and logistics, while my undergrad was Suppy Chain Management. I wrote a ton of papers and had crazy 3-6 hour tests with my undergrad. The Master work is similar to topics and more laid back. Two quarters in, and I've written maybe two three page papers. It's probably more of a technical degree than if it was an academic masters that led to a doctoral program. Basically, $45k, read the books, and you get at least a B.
