Going back to school

[epicstruggle]

So I decided to go back to school. After years from getting my BS from CompSci, I decided on getting a degree in Computer Engineering. Just started this week. I must say it was quite shocking to realize that Im competing with guys (and very few girls) that are almost half my age.

Anyone else recently go back to college?

Been thinking (more like dreaming!) about it for a good few years. I would really love a complete change in career direction but don't have the guts to give up what I have already.

Good luck to you anyway, hope it all works out.

I went back to Purdue Calumet back in 96, but I had to go on a sabbatical to raise some kids.

Cleared up my academic record though, and got into the School of Computer Sciences at least.

I'd go back to school, but the financial burden will make it very tough. My job sucks, but I don't make enough money that it's easy to save for four years of school.

I'm glad for you epic. It takes a lot of muster to go back to school.

I went back while working for a failure of a video game company years back and it was the best move I made to be sure.

I thought you already got a masters or something. Are you getting a masters now or another undergrad degree? If not why not get a masters instead, or even a PhD?
