B.A. Political Science - 6 years(mixture of part time/full time).

If I had to do it over again I would have focused more on school and changed my major to Accounting and did a 5 year BS/MS in Accounting instead of going to law school.
 
BS Physics, BS Mathematics, minor Astronomy

4 years

Not that hard to do if you have have a knack for math. And all three are so related, it's only a few courses that separates them.

BS Computer Engineering from Michigan Tech

Took 5 years. I went to community college for the first year, and the way course schedules were and with senior design being a fall then spring set of courses, I had to do it in 5! 🙂
 
I am working on an econ degree now, after changing majors 3 times now, and dragging around some bad grades this is where I ended up, will end up taking me 6 years. the 6 years includes about 2 for a associates degree.
 
BS Anthropology-Zoology & Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (that's two majors with too many words 😛) - 5 years
MS Human Biology - 3 years
MS Anthropology - 2 years
ABD PhD Anthropology - 3 years... One left. Hopefully.

Ph.D. Mathematics, 10 years total, 5 years for B.S., 5 more for graduate work.

Wowsers, very impressive. Dare I ask what your dissertation topic was? 😀

Whoa, there are many educated people here, but how come this education isn't matched by the quality of many posts.

G.E.D. 10 years.
Good enough diploma?

Haha, education =! intelligence =! wisdom =! maturity. 😛

Geological Engineering degree
Masters degree (Paleontology)
Illness prevented me from completing my Ph. D.

What type of paleo did you study?

BS - 4 years
MS - 2 years
ABD on a PhD - 3 years and out

What are you researching?

*Sigh* I want an Econ degree now, but don't want to do another 4 years undergrad and 1 to 2 graduate.
 
BS in Biological Chemistry, BS in Chemistry; 4 years total
--> The first one was 19 classes and the BA in chemistry was 15 classes. The BA completely overlapped with the BS in biochem, so I just took the extra 3 chem classes to get the BS in that as well since my school awarded multiple degrees if the majors was complete and I like how the subjects interrelate.

working towards a PhD in chemistry (specializing in biophysics)

B.S. in Business Management, took about 7 years working mostly full time... Also have my Fire Fighter 1... not in any way applicable to what I am doing now, but AWESOME classes nonetheless.
 
BA in MIS. Will either be 4.5 or 5 years. School transfer for finances. Lost some credits. I also work full time...about 40-50 hours each week.
 
B.Sc.(EE). It's typically a 5 year degree but certain nutcases (such as myself) have done it in 4 years. My convocation is May 31. I went the power systems route and I don't think I could have made a better choice for myself.
