@Behr, how go your classes?

I'm starting classes in January at my local community college to see if I can finally (50 years after high-school graduation, lol) get my act together enough to finish my bachelor's degree at UNCA.

I think I've finally recovered from my allergy toward actually attending class, but I have to say that I'm very aware that the brain power has slowed down. Also taking notes is Not Fun, because I can't write as quickly as I used to. But I've gotten better in other areas, so I'm hoping it all kind of balances out.

I'll just get to the point so I don't bore anyone.

Class sucks and I can't wait until it's over. Thank God I listened to my counselor.

It's only 2 classes and it's online. No big deal. But because I want to do good I'm putting too much pressure on myself.

It's only 2 classes, but the LoC class has 1-17 assignments every. Single. Week. In one class. And it's just too much for me. There, I said it.

I'll go ahead and except it if I'm alone in this world in being too old and dumb for this, but that's where I am with it. Too many other things I have to do and or want to do.

As of last week my current score is 90.33% in OTL and 83.98% in LoC. So, I'm doing it.

I have no doubt you'll breeze through it. You seem like you have it all together in the intelligence department.

The End.

Bingo. That’s my fear.

And that assignment load is ridiculous. Adults usually have too much real-world stuff going on for that.

I completed my master’s degree in 11 months and 2 days. My weekend assignments often totaled more than 1000 pages of reading and exercises. My backyard was neglected. “What was I thinking?” became a mantra. Yet, being 40-something, I had the discipline to see it through - all As but for 1 B (91.98 for the course; instructor wouldn’t round up; “92 and above’s an A; you didn’t make the cut.”).

I'd better not update on my grades and stress levels then. :rolleyes:

You don't have to prove to me how smart you are, I've never doubted or argued. No doubt you're on a whole different level than I am. I believe the parts I deleted from this post.

I call BS on the part I left.
