Long story short, I am a biochem major. Took an art appreciation course to fill a spot, and received an F due to the professor not putting the correct date for the final on the online campus. Otherwise had an 87 with some grades not entered in yet. What can […]
Read MoreI want to Continue Undergrad but Everyone says school is useless
I am in college right now at the age of 24 and *just* now getting my associate’s degree. I had a hard life – had to take a break before going back to school. Being back in school and getting my associate’s degree has made me hopeful again. I loved […]
