ST Poll: If you had unlimited funds, would you go back to school and for what?

Posted by spamlet Jun 27 '12, 10:11

Yes, probably law. If I have unlimited funds, I don't need to actually get a lawyer job after school.

        but the accountability of the report card makes you perform better; makes you study harder; makes you actually do the work. - amanda Jun 27, 10:23 3
        
        Yup. This is my problem with my work class. There's no grade, no accountability. - spamlet Jun 27, 10:27 2
        
        and like, let's talk onground vs. online: if I can see my instructor, I am far more likely to care about my class. - amanda Jun 27, 10:28 1
        
        don't get me started. -- nm - znufrii Jun 27, 10:29
        
        There's a big difference in reading Wikipedia and sitting in a classroom. - spamlet Jun 27, 10:22 1
        
        Sure is. And while I'm fine with sitting in a classroom for the most part, it's the homework I can't abide. -- nm - znufrii Jun 27, 10:24
