I'm DONE!!!!!!!
#1
Hey Guys,

I haven't been on here in a really long time. I came here with perhaps an overly ambitious plan, working full time and attempting several courses, as well as trying to exorcise my laziness I've been prone to. However, after a few setbacks, I'm proud to say I'm finally done, I just got the grades for my last course and will apply for TESC graduation in June.

I want to thank everyone on here because, prior to finding this site, I gave up on ever finishing my degree. As some of you know, I live in Asia, and it's extremely difficult to find a suitable, flexible, and reasonably priced program when you live abroad. That's not to say it wasn't still a challenge. The people on this board, however, really gave me the motivation and the drive to do it.

I initially did ALEKS, and started doing so well I did most of their courses. I was reminded of my old Calculus days and decided to go for a major in Mathematics. I wrote several CLEPS in the Philippines and DSST in Hong Kong, the latter grades being lost because of ID issues (oh well). From there, I took several TESC courses in Math, filling up most of the requirements. I ended up taking longer than planned, but I'm glad to say I'm finally done now.

Thanks again to everyone for your support. I'm really glad this community exists and the help you give people on here is invaluable.

Congratulations!! I consider advanced mathematics my single greatest weakness, so I have an extreme amount of respect for anyone who could complete a degree in it.

Good job and good luck.
