English to Japanese translation help.
"I will only get my degree if I can finish in 3 years or less. 4 years is too long."

は日本語で何と自然に言いますか？

ありがとう　：）

Answer

"will" in this sentence indicates your intention of getting the degree, right? 
3 yrs or less-> you are willing to get your degree; 4 years-> no thanks.
My "tentative" translation would be
3年以内だったら学位を取ります。4年では長すぎます。
3年以内だったら学位を取る。4年は長すぎる。

「とれる」=「とる＋できる」means a capability or a possibility, not an intention/will.

Answer

じゅんさんは神様だよ！翻訳くれてありがとう！

Answer

三年以内でないと私は学位を取れません。四年では長すぎます。

Good Luck!
