You can prove that you can complete things in other ways though. A degree shows you can complete things that you are told to. I.e. conforming. A lot of people seem to come out of university and be somewhat useless in a workplace. I think that's because university is 4yrs of doing what you're told, so by the time you come out your default mode is, "wait for someone to tell me what to do".
