I am the eldest of two.
I believe that, more than birth order, whether you have siblings influences your personality. However, what Andrew initially said about the first born does mostly apply to me.

After parents died went to live with an aunt and uncle who had a son, whose age was right between my brother and mine. Does that make me a third?
Not really. Always felt like a one and only, due to circumstance.

Not only that but I think whether or not you have girls or boys for siblings changes you. Our family's birth order is Boy (Me), Girl, Boy, Boy, Boy, Boy, Boy, Girl! :eek: That's a lot of siblings!

I've seen several people that say they're with CollegePlus. This is probably a question that everyone else knows the answer to but, "What is CollegePlus?" :o

Don't worry--most people probably don't know what CollegePlus! is. :o It's an organization that helps students complete their degree through "non-traditional" means such as CLEP and DANTES tests or online courses, but usually in about two years or less (accelerated distance learning). It sets students up with coaches in order to help students plan their degrees, testing schedules, help keep them on-track, etc. You can check out their website at
CollegePlus! - Home. It's a great organization!
