i know how it is. im pushing myself through it all though. i graduated from high school in 2004 and started school that fall. at this end of this semester i will be a little ways through my senior year. i have been busting my ass taking classes every chance i get.

right now im taking 6 classes(18 hours). i also work about 30 hours a week.

sometimes i feel like quiting, but i stick it out. all i have left is this semester and next, then 1 elective and my mandatory internship this coming summer. then ill graduate at the end of summer.

I was in the real world out of high school and finally am back in school now. It's way better! Especially since I don't have to use up all my otherwise-free time working a ****ty job

Yea, 2 yr here. Taking 5 classes while working 35-40 hrs a week. Then sometimes gotta squeeze in the time to party, so I go to bed around 3 and wake up at 7 for school, then go to work.

I'm feelin' ya. It's been hard for me to adjust to college. I'm the kind of guy that didn't have to study much in high school, and now I'm busting my ass to catch up. ****!

I managed to finish in 4.5 and at times I thought I was going to pull my hair out, but I made it through with ample amounts of caffeine and a lot of late night high speed drives out in the middle of nowhere. It felt so awesome when I was finally done. Now I'm thinking of torturing myself through a masters program :-(

i feel ya, i used to be really stressed, but not anymore. my email is deanhupalo@aol if you wanna know more lol, im not allowed to discuss it on the boards, but nothing illegal so its all good. College can be hard but theres a quote that says "this too shall pass" so just give it your best shot and before you know it you'll be graduating.

I know your pain. I'm in my third year of university and I'm taking Business Administration. Never ending work and every class seems exactly the same.
