Masters in Public Relations ...

[From a TOEIC test]

What do "Masters" and "Bechelors" mean? Do they mean "(a) master(')s (degree)" and "(a) bachelor(')s (degree)" respectively?

Yes. They're written incorrectly.

 

[kadioguy]

Yes. They're written incorrectly.

I think that they should have at least added the apostrophes or that they could have simply deleted the two "s".

Edit: deleted the comma before "or".

Yes.

No. It's always a Master's. You can't call it a Master.
