I should have posted this last week, but I wanted to wait until it was official (getting my final grade). It has been a long seven years, and I can’t say i didn’t want to give up a million times. If it hadn’t been for friends and family I most likely would have.
Now all thats left is finding a job, and paying back those student loans.
So watch-out world there is a new biochemist on the loose.

Cheers!
Best of luck to you… …and to the world - you biochemists! (_narrows eyes suspiciously at **RetroVertigo** _)

Congratulations. Go out and do great things with it. I graduate with a lowly Political Science degree in December. At least you have something specific.
