The discussion clarifies the meaning of numbers associated with educational qualifications, specifically focusing on graduation years. A standalone number typically indicates the year someone received their Bachelor's degree. In cases where additional information is provided, such as the type of degree followed by the year, it signifies the year of graduation for that specific degree. This distinction helps in understanding the educational background of individuals based on the format of the information presented.

To be precise, if there's just a number, as in the first example, it's the year they got their Bachelor's degree. For other degrees, as in the second example, you'll see the degree and then the year.
