Graduated high school with mediocre grades. Am attending college now, finally. I want to be a midwife when I "grow" up.

I graduated with honors from "Screw U."
Ah yes, I've seen that school. I usually drive by it really fast with my middle finger out the window ;)

Shouldn't the question be : How well are you being educated now?

I love school, I do not care for the degrees...but whatever will get me a good job to support my schooling habit :)
Hopefully I will have a BS (appropriate) in May in New Media, and then I might stay a couple more years for something more "practical" like business admin. I dunno.

Some of the most intelligent people I know never graduated from high school. And some of the most ignorant have PHDs.
My mother forced me to quit school after grade 10 (Grade 11 needed for a HS diploma) so that I could stay home and take care of her kids.
After I left the borg I went to college as a mature studnet and graduated with honors in a 3-yr professional counseling program.
Then went on to university and graduated with a BA in Applied Social Science (more counseling).
For those of you who do NOT have your high school equivalency---- if you have been out of school for more than 2 years you may not need to get it to go to college or university. Check to see if they have a mature student program. Don't give up on learning. it is the best thing you can do for yourself - regardless of what you decide to do with it later.
Oh and if you are retired many colleges and universities will allow you to audit courses - for free and with no exams. Mind you no papers either but you will learn
Learning is an investment in personal development regardless of age or experience

I graduated from Pioneer School and am currently enrolled in the Theocratic Ministry School. I have been an avid reader of the Awake! for over 25 years, thus obtaining a honorary doctorate at JWBSU.
Thankfully I never wasted my time corrupting my mind with worldly wisdom.
