  • going back to school

    So recently with all the fb pictures of everyone graduating i have been tossing the idea of going back to school, but i just dont know what for. i currently have 68 hrs in criminal justice since i wanted to be a cop but since that fell thru im stuck, im currently a field tech on a cell phone network but i dont know if thats what i wanna do FOREVER, this field is just not guaranteed. I even thought about applying to be a fire fighter but not keen on spending the night away from family. My current employer will pay for my school but i just dont know what else to do......any ideas???

    The only job that is really secure and guaranteed is undertaker. Dieing is the only thing that everyone has to do.
    I don't like Republicans, but I really FUCKING hate Democrats.


    Sex with an Asian woman is great, but 30 minutes later you're horny again.

      I just enrolled into college 5 days ago. My goal is to be an aerospace engineer. I've been working on the heaps for 12 years now as an aircraft mechanic. Hopefully that will help some.

        I would at least try to select a field before ever going back to school without a focus. Sounds like you are interested in doing something more physical? And is there no way for you to become an officer now?

          Engineering! We need more engineers.

          We only had 34 graduates for BSEE at UTA this semester. (No one heckled me)

          I guess the completion rate is about 30-35% from the levels of the Intro to EE class to graduation.

          char Forrest, Jenny, Momma, LtDan;
          double Peas, Carrots;
          string MommaAlwaysSaid(const bool AddAnyTime = True)
          };

                  I have been considering heading to law school to become a patent law or maritime law attorney. Both fields pay well and have little competition. I took the LSAT earlier this year and got a 172 but haven't decided on a school yet. Given that I have an advanced degree already I figure that it will take about 2 years to finish the new degree. If anyone here has experience in either of these fields I would love to discuss it with you.

                    For patent law...you better be in love with paperwork. I thought it would be cool for awhile but realized it is something I couldn't take forever. And 2 years is pretty quick for a JD...

                      Most people I talk to have nothing but good things to say about you, but you sure come across as a condescending prick. Do you have an inferiority complex you've attempted to overcome through overachievement? Or were you fondled as a child?

                      You and slow99 should date. You both have passive aggressiveness down pat.

                          Why does everything you post sound like bullshit?

                            because he's trying to say he scored in the 99th percentile on the LSAT

                              So far A&M, UT, SMU, and Wesleyan. Wesleyan looks the best since I won't have to move and can keep close tabs on my local business interest.
