Although hard-work just can’t be compensated with anything but the value of attaining a higher degree is still there- - be it for genuine reasons or to show it off. The practice of attending classes has been diminishing; this is due to the advent of Distance Education. The mode of education has become a ‘hit’ all over the world now.
