Re: Frudat Five May 10


 

I was in my 50's and had to work while qualifying?undergrad for a very competitive program. I stayed between 3.6 (gynecology?rotation!) and 4.0 throughout school. We invested a lot of time and money into getting my license and any attempt to coast would?have been an insult to the family supporting this mid-life crisis!

Marvin,

I couldn't afford to limp. When I started college I was 16 and became an emancipated minor. I was able to get into the college's work-study program, though, and that was a real blessing. I worked in the college's computer lab (at minimum wage), so I had relevant work experience when I graduated. I never went back home to mom. The biggest hassle was learning to drive and then finding a car when I first started.

Aloha,
Celeste

Ibn Europe students don't study worthless subjects - and if they don't do well their first year they are out.? No limping along - though I limped through seven years at UC Davis and finally succeeded.

Why not? Public education should be free and there are a lot of public colleges and universities. This approach seems to work quite well in Europe. There's really no need to force the underprivileged to have to struggle while other students don't have to.
