Hmmm, well, I would hope one would have much more concern with the manner in which the degree is completed. A 50 question test to get a degree is not acceptable and not respectable. The Groupon situation is just a little weird. The 50 question test for an entire Master's degree is objectively bogus, made even more bogus by the fact that the school makes no transcripted distinction between the degree being milled with a 50 question test, and the degree being earned through doing actual work - writing papers. It's just deceptive, and part of the reason the FCEs are going to blacklist ENEB and Isabel soon if they haven't already.
People will say "Oh, well, they still give you the option to take the "traditional" Master's course!" Yeah, but we all know that when you provide a shortcut, and you make it available in such a way that no one will even know the shortcut was taken, more people will take the shortcut rather than the way that requires real work.
I was a big supporter of this school, huge, and I get that some have the need to be undyingly positive no matter what the school does (not you, some others), but what ENEB is doing is downright detestable and I can't support it. I have to question the ethics of anyone who would see no problem with getting and listing a 50 question Master's degree, I'm appalled that Isabel is allowing this, and I'm shocked that the Spanish government hasn't put a stop to it all given how often they drop the hammer on schools for lesser matters than this. Maybe they just don't know about it yet. Maybe it's time someone contacted them to let them know. I have to believe they don't know, because given how they normally handle things, if they did know they might just shut down ENEB and suspend Isabel for a period, which at this point I think would be for the best. Yeah, I think maybe it's time someone make sure the government of Spain knows what's going on...
