What percentage of all MS awarded would you wager are intended to be 3-4 years?

[dnautics]

the verb you used was "lasts" not "intended".

> There’s already a 3-4 year advanced degree

What do these words mean to you? To me they imply the degree is intended to last 3-4 years. The English is very clear here.
