I'm Finally Done!!
#1
It took 35 years, but I passed my last CLEP today and finished my requirements for my Associates Degree.
hilarious hilarious

I was talking to a friend last night who said yea 35 years, 2 marriages and 3 kids. don't forget all that!!:eek:

So it might just be an AA, but I can say I am a college graduate. I will take a few months off and then decide if I will go on for a BA, BS or what.

Thanks to all who encouraged assited and kicked me in the butt when needed.

May you all feel as good as I do when you complete your degree.Big Grin

Congrats to the both of you then!!! I hope your children appreciate your drive and commitment to complete your degree! It takes alot of work to do it while raising a family. I know I'm doing it myself and believe me you have those days when you say "I can't do it anymore can it just end". But you wake up and start all over again.

Thank you all for your good wishes. I think I am hooked on testing, I will probably be back for more. I just need to take the summer off and see where my life is going. GOOD Luck to all of You If I am not here much I may miss someone else's moment of triumph. So Congrats in advance.
