When is the appropriate age to have a Ph.d. Degree? Some believe that you must be a father or a working class person. Please I need answers.

No "appropriate age". As long as you are smart enough to do it, and can afford it/got funding.

Don't you have to go to uni before master/phd?


You can be young and super smart and be a phd holder before 30! Some take longer than others to achieve once they're started. Depends on what the person is working on.

My point is, it has nothing to do with age as long as the person can handle it.
