This word in Arabic 3 (Talking about my people) is spelt incorrectly.
It should be spelt “درجة علمية”.
Please contact any linguists.
maybe try talking to the creator? unless it’s memrise 
Hi @Mahirislam!
If it is Memrise official Arabic course then you can contact Angela in the Arabic Course Forum thread. Try typing “Arabic” in search area. There is one thread for all the 7 courses
Here’s the official Arabic Memrise course:
My personal answer: even درجة علمية sounds incorrect. As درجة is used in Arabic only for “degree” of temperature or angle.
I’d say شهادة علمية is the best substitution.
@Mahirislam, @RyouBakura and @ApolloNexus please check the official forum thread there is an answer for this specific entry there

Hey @Mahirislam!
We have changed it to a more appropriate word: “شهادة علمية” 
Thanks for posting!
