'I got' seems most appropriate. Although 'I have got' is not incorrect as it represents possession, but using 'I have got' is considered as an Informal way of using English language.

This sentence is in simple past tense. So, there is no use of adding another helping verb like 'have' or 'had'. Simply "i got my degree in 1988" is correct.

They have specified the exact year in which he got his degree if so we must use past tense.

No any doubt the correct option is [D] because his qualification still effect his present life.

I think both A and B is wrong here as in fist stmt we have to use "I got" very easy to understand....
But in second stmt. we have to use the article before M.Sc. as per the articles rule....

I think it is I had because sentence 1988 given past tense should be used.

"got" itself is a pastence

I think both i have got & i had got could nt b used in this because they havn't mentioned whether it is present or past tense...

Have got is present perfect which needs immediate finishing or usage of since or for otherwise its simple past.

We can use both I have got and I got.
Isn't it?
Actually using "have" puts an emphasis.
So I think both are correct.
