does the huge number of phd increases show a symptom of the bar being too low to receive a phd, or the number of qualified candidates actually receiving the phd? Same question for the compsci degree.

I know a ton of people who have comp sci degrees, but, cant write my mysql query or write a block of code, or solve some rudimentary problems, or talk through problem solving questions like rational human beings.

Same goes for other faculties. Hell, I once hired a finance major with a business degree who couldn't handle doing the books for our startup.

Just because they are graduates, it doesn't make them candidates
