After 19 years, with a few years’ break in between, 13 years solid-- I finally, finally, finally have my BA in Mathematics. I’m exhausted, elated and a bit confused about where to go from here, but all in all I couldn’t be happier. So here I am, Mojave66, BA, aged 44.
Kids-- don’t do what I did. Finish your degree in your youth.
Adults-- Do what I did. If you want to go back to school, DO IT.
Took me almost that long (13 years total) but it was worth it.
Too bad I was such an idiot back in the late 80’s. “Beer good!” Bah, you have your whole life to drink, but getting a degree in 4 years - you only get one shot at that!
