Very little considering that you can't construct a grammatically correct sentence.\n\n{edit} Muggler --- Nope, no reason to be jealous, I have a PhD and don't want a PHD.  I know the difference between "attain" and "obtain".  I understand that there is no such thing as philosophy of biomedical engineering.  I'm simply pointing out a fact in evidence.  I also understand that the pursuit of education should be for the sake of education and not only about how much you will bank.  Seems a little shallow to me.  Now run along and play in traffic (that comment was rude, by the way, so that you can appreciate the difference).  Thanks for taking the time to voice your opinion about me.  I like to be noticed.

The way I understand it is you may take part in the graduation ceremony but you don't get a diploma or degree untill you have enough credits. You don't graduate early.\nWalking in the graduation ceremony doesn't mean you graduate early.How many people would finish the course if they already had a degree?

They just want your completed qualifications.  For example, if you have a degree and are studying a graduate diploma, just write your degree.  In your case, write high school, as your degree isn't yet finished.

Passed would be used to describe movement of some sort. Past would be used in reference to time. Examples...\n\nI passed you on the highway this morning.\n\nIn the past, I've seen you on the highway.\n\nIn your sentence, it should be rewritten as "I graduated XYZ college in 2002." Because neither passed or past would be appropriate. Unless you are stating you passed out due to excessive drinking. :) However, if you are just wondering which would be correct, past or passed, in just the context of your sentence and the information you want to construe and not the proper grammar, than passed would be correct because you obviously received passing grades, passed your exams. :)

There must be some variation in terminology here, perhaps regional, more likely national.\n\nIn the United States, a degree is, technically, a title awarded at the end of a course of study above the secondary level.  For undergraduate degrees, the program--even if it's not an Arts degree such as an AA or BA, but is a technical one such as an AS or BS--includes some general education component.  At the graduate level, degrees are awarded in both research disciplines and in professional programs.  It is precisely because the degree is a title that it will often appear before or after an individual's name, e.g. Jorge Smith, BA; Fred Singh, MBA; Dr. Ellen O'Garcia.\n\nA diploma is a document which is a record of graduation from an educational institution.  (And it is true that high schools do hand out diplomas, though they confer no degrees upon their graduates).  At the college/university level, a diploma is often handed to a graduate as part of the degree-conferral process.  Those who listen carefully at college/university graduation ceremonies will often hear the moment at which a university official pronounces the degrees as conferred on the graduates.  This usually happens separately from the handing over of the diploma, the record of the degree.\n\nFor undergraduate post-secondary programs which are technical in nature, those without a general education component, typically skill- or job-focused, it is usual for the student to receive a "certificate" as a record of the accomplishment.
