Apex scale means the  highest scale given to a Central Government Employee.  Under Sixth Pay Commission recommendation,  Apex Scale (Rs.80000/-) corresponds to erstwhile scale of S-33 which is the pay Scale designated for officers of the rank of Secretary Govt. of India.

The time takes varies from Division to Division according to varying factors. You can expect 12-24 months delay. Your degree wont give you any financial benefit. The promotion also will be based on your performance in departmental exams and seniority.
