My CV might seem a bit off because of current updates to the U.S. School System. Most PhD and Doctorate programs such as an MD or JD are going towards a Bachelor or Masters program. This includes the Doctor of Psychology or D.Psy.
Degrees are also coming down in cost which allows people to get multiple degrees throughout their lifetime instead of just 1 or 2 degrees. Many people focus on their current degree or degree aspiration but may still use an older degree as a point of reference.
Finally, High School is where many studies will take place in the future with college students going straight into peer review and workplace practice. This can be done at the age of 16 if a student is in dual credit, has already graduated, or is in an online HS which is similar but more advanced than dual credit.
Currently Biology, Psychology, and Nutrition are considered 10th Grade curriculum. Most complex topics like Chemistry are AP High School or 100 to 200 level college. Most colleges have reduced their Masters degree requirements to the 500 or 600 level.
