This is just so gosh darn brilliant, it had to be read again. MOST ACCURATE ASSESSMENT I'VE READ on this board in....I don't know how long. Years maybe.

It's a fact. The successful student here is a "do it yourself" individual. That's not to say anyone can't use CLEP and many of the resources here, they can and do. However, to fully extract the gems, you must be highly self-motivated to do so. Resourcefullness is a common theme here. "Chance favors the prepared mind" in credit seeking lol.

I'm not even addressing soldier, I'm just sayin.....

Resourcefulness is the master competency of any individual.

If you are resourceful you have the agility needed to be able to be flexible and change any other aspects of your life.

Those are minimum requirements, BTW. You'll need a lot more than that to even get considered. Those Space Studies degrees are interesting, but won't come close to cutting it for such a position.
