Some number of years ago there was an article in Newsweek that said that
the German government sent an evaluation team here to assess US colleges.
Their schools were crowded & they were considering permitting them to come
here for credit.  There conclusion was that their high school grads were
the equivalent of someone who had finished the 1st 2 years at one of our
universities.

The Germans I have personally spoken with told me that they don't have
masters degrees.  Their bachelor's is the equivalent of our master's.
