April 18, 200719 yr I have a ten page paper that I have to convert into a 25 minute power-point presentation for tomorrow. Ouch that is brutal, and I thought what I had to do tonight is bad...
April 18, 200719 yr Wow thats a long time. Seriously. I thought she was joking when she first said that, I was sadly mistaken...
April 18, 200719 yr Seriously. I thought she was joking when she first said that, I was sadly mistaken... I think 10 minutes would be hard enough. :lol: I can't wait to go back to school. :irked:
April 18, 200719 yr I would take more classes a semester to finish early if I could but I'd probably end up failing them all.
April 18, 200719 yr I would take more classes a semester to finish early if I could but I'd probably end up failing them all. I was a bit of a slacker in my early college years. Had to take 9 classes (six "regular" classes and three 1-hour classes) my final semester to graduate in four years. Kind of the opposite of your idea.

Kind of the opposite of your idea.:eek: :eek: I'm happy with the 5 year plan I'm on right now, 4 classes a semester is enough for me. I really don't enjoy school but at the same time I have no real reason to hurry. I just want to enjoy my college experience while it lasts. There will always be the rest of my life for work 50 weeks a year...

April 18, 200719 yr 5 years is probably the norm, from what I hear. It took an average of 16 hours per semester to graduate from Morehead in four years back in the day. And as for working 50 weeks per year, I have my time (27 years) in the Kentucky Retirement System; which is a nice position to be in. If I hadn't busted my hump that last semester, maybe I couldn't say that just yet.:thumb: And I'd advise anyone to enjoy their college experience. In fact, I may have enjoyed it a little too much the first two and a half years. Just don't repeat the college experience of one of my college roomates. We both started at the same time. When we were roomates off campus (in what then was Ms. Gregory's trailer court in Clearfield), I was in graduate school and he was a fifth-year sophomore. Attended classes each fall, signed up for classes each spring but never attended. Got placed on academic probation in the fall, attended classes; like it says on shampoo bottles "repeat if necessary".

April 18, 200719 yr I am pretty sure a very very small number of people graduate in 4 years. I don't know what the percentages are these days; but I'm sure it's fairly small. My son was able to graduate from Vandy in four years, but he had several AP credits going in, and he didn't work, which made it much easier. As I said earlier, I graduated from Morehead in four years, but I also didn't work until my senior year, and that was in the Psychology lab as a "work-study" student; only 12 hours a week or so.
