I "got" is correct because statement is in simple past. The person had its degree, so no usage of have in it. Its not a feeling.

Present perfect tense --> use it when the work started from the past and it affect you till today.
I have got my M.Sc. degree in 1988 means you are getting this degree from 1988 to 2012.
I have got my M.Sc. degree in 1988 means you are getting this degree from 1988 to 2012.

When the year is given in the sentence we always use 2nd form of verb and make the sentence in simple past tense.

When year is mentioned in a sentence, it means it is a simple pastence. So we used" I got. ". For example if year is not mentioned. Sentence like. ". I have got my degree. ".

Present perfect "is used for just now completed action".
Hear he got msc in 1998 it is past. So we have to use "i got my msc degree in 1988".
Hear he got msc in 1998 it is past. So we have to use "i got my msc degree in 1988".

We can use either "got" or "had got".
Usually americans use got, they don't use had got.
But both are correct.

'have got' is used when the action is completed just now whereas 'got' is a simple past which is correct to use in the sentence.

In 1988 means it is simple past tense so we can't use present perfect (HAVE GOT) here
