So as of Tuesday I am an officially a College Graduate.

Finished up duel Bachelor's in Accounting and Corporate Finance (Magna Cum Laude).

I went straight through in 3 years with no breaks while working full-time (12-16 credit hours a semister).  Bad part is, I got my raise when I started my job last year and won't be getting a new position until sometime next year. Still I'm making about 30K more than I did three years ago.

I'm pretty excited to be done and am going to try and get in shape and take up disc golf as a new hobby and of course ride a lot more.

Taking a year off and then going to start studying for the CPA exam.
Congrats...

BTW...it's dual ;) :P

CLEP and DANTES were the smartest things I did.  You can borrow a text book from the library and review it before taking the test.  I read a book like "Don't know much about the Civil War" and got 3 credits taking the Civil War test.

If you rednecks don't know what the Civil War is, it's the War of Northern Aggression.   ;D

Oh, you mean he didn't get awarded his degree in return for vanquishing an accountant in a swordfight, and shooting a corporate finance type with a flintlock pistol at dawn?

I woulda given him a degree for that!

Way to go guy.

I wish that those CLEPs were around when I was in School back in the late '60's early '70's.

I hated French, English Lit. and Typing not to mention Cost Accounting.

You should be very proud ...now go out and make something of yourself      :)

HA, no your not! ;D

Its funny I was reading a fantasy book about a duelist at lunch before I posted this.  Most have just slipped out.

Double,  hopefully I already have made something of myself but I plan on doing much bigger things before I'm done.

Thanks again everyone, it was really hard doing this while working full-time.

He-Man and everyone else still grinding it out- stick with it, it'll be over before you know it and you'll be a much better person afterwards.  No homework does rock though [evil]

LUCKY!  I still have 1 year left.  Dual major, Finance and Personal Financial Planning.

So if anyone want to help me out and give me a job in a year I would be very grateful!
As long as it does not involve mixing cement by hand and carrying 48 buckets up a flight of stairs then spreading the cement at an exact depth and laying tile. <- wet bed floors, I do those too.

Thankfully I don't work in college (just summer) cause "I just wanna ride my motor-cy-cle"

G I JOE!!! Ride my motorcycle
Is this thing on?

Kudos to you for having the stamina....number-crunching no less...

that curriculum would have turned me into a classroom annihilator before the first semester was half over
This is an insult to the Pez community
