To everyone still in the process of getting there, keep up the great work. I don't think most of us realize just how fast we are going (compared to the average college student). When I spoke to the Washington Post reporter on the phone, he was completely blown away about the amount of credits we are earning, and that was a guy who reports about the state of education for a career. He just had no idea it could be done so fast. Then I told him "what I'm doing is really not that uncommon at all; on the forum I visit there are tons of students completing degrees in a fraction of the time you'd expect." I really hope he does click on the link at to this forum. I believe that an accelerated, online education will be the wave of the future. Imagine being 19 or 20, finishing high school, and being able to complete these courses within a year, without having to work? I think we're just seeing the tip of the iceberg.
