100% agreed, the more you know the easier it becomes to understand other
topics. Everything has a way of tying itself together. |

| the brain's no different than working out your body. When you stagnate it, it takes longer to retrieve and process information. Reading, memory, writing, conversing, all those things take longer when you don't do them for awhile. |

| I just graduated at 27, and I didn't feel old at all. |

| I went to University for 5 years...switched programs twice and lost two years because of it. went to college for two years after that...ended up with a physics degree and a 3-year electronics diploma. I feel a little behind my high school buddies by graduating at 26, but i am happy where i ended up. don't worry about your age. |

So yeah looks like I am heading back to more school.
I have a bachelors degree in geography LOL.
I also have a college diploma as an HVAC tech.
But not to long ago it hit me that I would love to work for the government. Problem is I am now 24. I am getting into a bussiness admin. program with focus on finance and human resources. I will be 27 when I am done. Is that too old ?
Fackin life..... |

| going back to school later in life is a bigger mentality issue than academic one. As long as you are self driven and sure that is the direction you want to take, it's the right move. Personally speaking, one of my co-workers is headed back at 38 right now. It's not about when you finish, it's THAT you finish. |

Going back to school is NEVER late! There is nothing embarrassing about it, and in the long run, you only gain.
I am thinking about doing my masters when I am about 25 or older (22 now), so I will be in the same position as you.
Who knows, I might not even make it, I am pretty content with my job now. But as I said, education is an ongoing process, and it shouldn't end untill you do! :P
:crazy: |

| I'll prolly be around 26 or 27 when I graduate. What the problem with that is, I do not know. Thus, its never too late. |
