You would have failed. I was very good in math, but I skipped school a lot back then.

I didn't exactly ditch because I wanted to. Home life was not great. But it's not something I really want to expound on.

I was working on a BS in Information Systems, which I have yet to complete due to money and my own damn laziness.

I've never been a good student.  I hate doing homework. :(

I'd like to suggest you add a spot for Associates Degrees.  There's a differance between some college, and actually completing an Associates degree.

I hold an Associates in Weather Technologies.

Are you sure you finished? :tongue:

I did finish my Associate degree.  I should have taken six months off before continuing... things might be different now.  Never underestimate the motivational power of showing up everyone in your class when it comes to doing labs.

I have an Associates degree, so checked "some college."  Mr Smith is our educated one.  I call him our professional student, because he's still working on another degree...he has an Associates, a Bachelor's, and 2 Masters.  He could have had his doctorate, but never finish the thesis.

I do have a nursing degree but never used it.  Shameful I know but it turns out I was better at mothering and being a wife then nursing.

I'd say I made an excellent choice.  Not one regret.

I picked PhD, as closest to what I really have, which is a JD (Cum laude) and a subsequent LLM.

Well....it was a hell of a long time ago, but:

BSME
MS (Math)
PhD (Physics-in an arcane and nearly obsolete disipline)

I also did 3 semesters of law school, decided it wasn't for me.......
