What is chorea? Chorea refers to involuntary movements characterized by their random, brief, and non-rhythmic character. They are often described as seeming to âflowâ from one body part to another unpredictably, though they can also be confined to a single area of the body (such as the mouth area or hands).
A diploma, on the other hand, is a document testifying to the completion of a course of study. Any graduate, whether of a university, a high school, or a six-week course in Spanish, will receive a diploma. High schools issue diplomas and certificates of attendance, but they do not award degrees. âDiplomaâ is not a âDegreeâ. The word degree has many meanings, but in academic terms, it refers to a certification awarded at the university level.
