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.

nasa research jobs are far and few between but here is one for you.

This is the cut and past from the above job:

And quick summary from the two above.
A)Degree in one of a combination of astronomy, physics, mathematics, space science or electronics, including course work in differential and integral calculus and 12 semester hours in astronomy or physics;

OR

B)A combination of education and experience equivalent to A above including at least 30 semester hours of courses equivalent to a major in any combination of astronomy, space science, physics, mathematics, and electronics with required course work as shown in A above.

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.
