I loved reading this post!!!
So great to read your getting back into it and sorry to hear 100% in Maths, who gets that? OMGosh……
I applied to Uni myself a month ago to Study my Masters of Art and was thrilled I was accepted then shocked with the reality. I had the same 10 years quota for any Credit being given but it has been 25 years since graduating. I’m starting semester 2 with Chapter 2 of my life.
Good Luck xx

Oh I can just imagine how hard this is going to be (time wise). I did a year back at Uni in 2009 and it nearly killed me. Good luck, but hope to see a bit of cooking along the way. There could be a Uni Food section to your blog? Just thought!

Oh I’m so impressed. I went back to uni to do a post grad journalism course and that was part time. It was a huge amount of work. Good luck and I look forward to hearing your adventures. GG

Wow! I just was sitting here doing nothing much and you came to mind and I thought, “I haven’t seen a post from Charlie is ages!” So I checked your page and wow! Best of luck!!

oh my GOSH! I TOO am a nurse, besides a blogger, and I have to say that if I had to face going back to school now at this late date – I would just say “forget it”. So, hat’s off to you. I pray that you beat the tar out of the maths and only ever have to figure out how many 81mg Aspirins equal a 325 mg Aspirin in the future – but we know that won’t be the case. Keep us informed of how its going.

You are brave, I like that.
Things have changed a lot and it’s become difficult to do anything in this world but you can do this! i don’t understand why they don’t make a uniform degree all over the world. I was about to study a degree for nurse in Austria. I had done a tourism commerce college with a focus on health and if you do that college only you get a chance to be approved in a higher nurse college, which is a 4 years diploma. The problem with that degree is that its only valid in austria, not in germany not in france. My mother studied nurse in france and couldn’t work in austria as a nurse. I former work colleague of mine studied to become a nurse in slowenia but the degree has no value outside her country, so she ended up as a cleaning girl for hotels.
At least in Australia you guys seem to have a better diploma system. All the best with your studies, it’s exciting Charlie!
