Hi Ironheadjack,
Thanks for your honest feedback. I am stuck for 3 months twiddling my thumbs because of the TESC nursing school rules, so this BA would be in ADDITION to my BSN. I have to take the math anyway, so that's not the real issue for me. My thought was, if I am doing nothing Jan, Feb, Mar, why not earn an additional degree in something that interests me while I am waiting? But I did just read that I can't double major, so maybe that's the problem?
Not sure what to do with the next 3 months, and was thinking of ways to use my time to my advantage and earn more college credit.
Love the arts, and thought Humanities might be a decent path to check out. Not sure if I can CLEP, DSST, SL or ALEC's out of the 24 remaining humanities credits? But if I could, why not do that now, while I am stuck waiting anyway?
Thanks for your honest feedback, reminds me of my Grandfather in Montana...short, sweet and to the point! He's my barometer for "is this do-able"! LOL!
Thanks,
T
