My Journey

[frankiebleyes]

I personally obtained 33 credits in a five week period this spring through clep alone. Don't think just local cc, you can obtain that associates through one of the big 3 quickly by clep, DSST and probably some of your life experience credit added to that. I'm seven years older than you, have had cancer and other medical and life experience setbacks as you described. I agree keeping your mind active is some of the best medicine out there. Think about pursuing your decree on-line, testing out as much as possible. Read many of the posts here and you will see that many have indeed completed there decree within a year and gone on to pursue their master's and ph.d's. Best of luck in whatever you decide. Welcome aboard.
