Answer 1

Sounds that you are looking for something like the following.

mDatabase.orderByChild("MSCS").equalTo(1).addListenerForSingleValueEvent(
    new ValueEventListener() {
        @Override
        public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
            //data will be available on dataSnapshot.getValue();
        }

        @Override
        public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {
            Log.w(TAG, "getUser:onCancelled", databaseError.toException());
        }
});

Let me know if this works for you :)

Firebase equalTo(String value) method only returns value if it matches exactly. It is not like SQL LIKE query
