    Default Finals Tomorrow

    I will be taking my last 2 finals at my B&M school tomorrow. After my finals tomorrow, I will be 9 hours short of graduation which I will fullfill through DANTES and ECE. Its a good feeling, but almost scary as I have been going to school full-time, working 2 jobs, trying to be the best husband possible, and prepare for a newborn around Christmas. I am not sure what will occupy my time, but it has got to be better than school!

    Thanks again for all the help around here. This has been a great site that has helped me get this far without spending countless numbers of wasteful hours sitting in a boring lecture.

    Park University. Its been a good experience. The 8 week courses are short enough to keep my attention span. I have learned alot from many of my professors. Some, not so much. My business policy class was excellent. My professor has a PhD in Business Strategy and attended Oxford for economics. Sharp guy with alot of knowledge. I really think that that class was by far the best class that I have ever had in college.

    Thanks for the encouragement. Back to studying!

    Aced both finals! Although I have a 4.0 GPA at Park, I will not qualify for summa cum laude because I have only taken 42 hours with the school. You have to have 45 to get honors. Oh well...a 4.0 looks just as good on a resume.

    Can you squeeze in more class from them to get your honors? You really deserve them!!!! Maybe instead of the ECE?

    Well I could but that would mean paying about 700 bucks and taking another 8 week class. I'm ok with it. I didnt find out till today, but in reality, to me, getting the degree was the important thing.
