Been thinking about upgrading my bona fides. I do have the free time to knock one out. I wonder what a guy with a BS in Bio, an online MBA, and 20 years in the pool business would qualify for. $10k isnt bad at all.

The local directional school here is offering 1/2 price tuition l for those returning to finish a degree they started "earlier". They really didn't specify how much earlier. Guessing a large part of the fall is going to be remote learning. Not a tier 1 MBA in the least but might be an option for someone. I never could find if it was for this fall only or what.

Think WGU is only a couple K per semester, on par with the last community college I went to, anyways. Think I might start digging more and start looking into my current employer's education assistance.

WGU is particularly good for IT, there are some degree programs that you come out of with your degree, but also several certs that are baked into the program.
I don't know what the job market is going to look like 10 years from now, if a degree will still be worth it. I think about it sometimes though. It took a good chunk of money on top of my remaining GI Bill money to get a masters and tbh I don't know if it has helped me that much. Hasn't hurt, I don't think.

I guess the above impression is a result of Professors. Professor in todays class was excellent. Lecturing to a camera with no feedback seems shitty for some people and I can relate to that. Online classes arent all bad then, still better in person. Poo

Fucking spent 6 hours failing to solve a problem that was review of fairly basic pre requisite material. Stayed up until fucking 5am trying to work it out. Today I retry it and solve within 10 minutes. Fucking old man brain is trash. Oh and now it’s past the homework submission time. Rage level is epic.

I still need to get those As, feels like I am not trying otherwise and I hate that. Speaking of probability, one of the classes I am taking is stochastic processes and I fucking hate the intro probability problems that I had to review a few weeks ago. Holy shit am I bad at those. I am dunking on highly abstracts shit in my other classes but you ask me to pull a few balls out of some urns? Nope, fuck you..
