1. Congratulations!
Is it a one year accelerated program, or do you already have credits?

4. I have credits already
I'd have a breakdown if I did an accelerated program. Right now I have to search fastweb to find grants to pay for it and apply for Pell grants etc. That's more stressful than attending classes.

2. That is completely fantastic
It took me 8 years before I decided to go back and get my degree. I'm glad I did. It's never too late to learn something new.

CONGRATS!

5. Thank you.
Took me all these years to figure out what I'm good at and what I really wanted to do. You must feel accomplished at completing your goal.

7. I feed the duck bennies.....hahahahahahaha!
I may get to skip algebra if my past math course covers it. But then again, I always wanted to learn algebra. I tried teaching myself but I didn't get far. Good to know it can be enjoyable.

24. You seem to get along well here - you have a head start.
I worked in a state mental hospital for some years.
Whatever you may hear about the patients, the staff is worse.

Enjoy.

26. Good for you!
Congratulations! Going back to school is awesome....
I was the first in my organization to CLEP a course a few years back..
Intro to Psychology.....I didn't even have to study.
Life on the couch made it easy...
Have fun!
Oh....I can't afford my co-pays these days...I think we all should start PMing you with our problems!
Cheers!

You'll do great....insanity is fun...

32. Good for you, GW. Never stop learning. But as to the counseling, include me out,
because I'm beyond hope. As you know.

Fuck, I can't even manage to be able to move to Lancaster.
