None..

The only higher qualification I have is a level 3 NVQ in Childcare and Education

I love seeing people who have "Kate Smith, BA"

I'm like "haha, why don't you put 'Kate Smith, GCSE,DVLA,PMT' whilst your at it?!"

Saying that, for £20, you can become Laird of some scottish highland, lol.

Why is it that by looks, BEng > BSc > BA

BA is the ginger step-child of post nominals.

Haha, I used to work with a bloke called John West.. he was Scottish too.. we used to slate him so bad

What's worse is when people put unnecessary ones, where you clearly need one to have been allowed on the course for the other. Oh and people that call themselves doctor after having done a PHD that has nothing to do with medicine.

Because do be a doctor you really should do a PhD where as in this county MD's don't do a PhD.
