The question I have is how much math are you required to take to graduate? And if you need help, I can tutor you if you need help. Let me know.

And to answer your question, what you really need to do is to look at the classes that you have taken and put them up against what you’re required to take in order to graduate. Once you see how close/far you are to graduation, it’s easier to decide for yourself whether you want to continue or not.

I agree with Trina — only you can decide what’s good for YOU. Go back over and list your reasons for both wanting to go to school and wanting to quit. Then decide which is right for you.

Also, school is hell, regardless of what you do. Or at least I thought so. The only thing that kept me going was that if I got my BS, I’d not have to go back unless I wanted to. I did get my BS and tried to do a MS and decided that MS really wasn’t my thing. In fact, I wish I had gotten a BA in English instead! Heh.

Good luck! And your friends are behind you regardless of your choice

I’m so proud you didn’t quit math…(just like the commercial)!

It’s funny because just yesterday I was talking to my two older teenagers and I said that when you get older you look back on school with fond memories but you forget that the reality is that much of it is not really fun and it drives you crazy! I sometimes look back and think how wonderful it was to be learning so much but then I have to tell myself how I really didn’t like much by the time I was in college. Sometimes my advice to my kids is to just get through it, just put up with that horrible teacher, just realize that life can sometimes be unfair, etc, because in the end it all will work out. Once they make it through a tough class or tough time, I try to talk to them about the lesson they’ve learned. Sometimes that lesson can be valuable and sometimes it can just be that that teacher was a jerk. I’m starting to see that my interactions with my kids are coming off as “Leave it to Beaverish”….when in reality there is a lot of crying, pouting and snapping! Well, got to go and talk to my son about how mad he is about losing the computer programming competition to people who had projects that weren’t as good….there’s definitely a life lesson in there! hee hee hee!

Good luck with all your decisions…
