What should I tell all them college students?

[Gaz]

I just say that I am taking classes online with proctored exams at a test center. I've found that most people cannot wrap their head around the type of subject matter discussed on this forum. Lindagerr said it best, "Don't explain if they don't know that is for them to figure out".

I have gone into detail with people in the past and I sensed the skepticism. On one occasion, someone condescendingly informed me that they are "earning" their degree. This person was attending an NA school. I politely tried to explain the limitations of NA credit and degrees. He became defensive and could not accept that my exam credits have greater transferability than the courses he "actually attended".
