Grad school

[Devildoc]

I am not the brightest guy in the room, but neither am I the dullest (BA, BSN, grad school). I am back in grad school and I have to say that now that I am on the downhill side of my 40s (almost 48), man, this is so much harder, especially the bullshit theory classes. And I am not sure the technology is making things easier.

Rant over, back to the books....

Different parts of the brain and components of intelligence can peak in function at different ages.

You may wish to play with methods of study and learning that are different from back when you obtained your other degrees, IMO.

Good for you man! Get er done

What degree are you seeking?

MSN/Education. Who the hell knows what I am going to do when I am done. They are already recruiting me for the PhD program to teach.

I was going to suggest looking into PhD programs.

I was going to suggest looking into PhD programs.

I have to admit, with wrestling/rugby, the military, EMS, there is a wonderful appeal to having a kinder, gentler schedule and lifestyle.

Rock on. Keep at it. Everything evolves.

Don't your school bells start soon too?

Ha, you pay attention. I started a month ago. I am really enjoying this school. I signed up for the advanced planning course. There is no lack of reading, that's for sure.

There is no lack of reading, that's for sure.

The reading I don't mind. I need to get my head wrapped around the technology in this program, and blow dust off the neurons with the required format of writing.

Grad school is awesome, though I certainly wish they would de-emphasize the group work a little bit.

Keep plugging away, @Devildoc . That MSN is worth it!

Not what I wanted to hear since I start in January. I'm sure once it starts I'll be wondering what the hell I was thinking going for a one year MBA program. :wall::wall:
