@ valsacar, I understand that some ppl may feel that getting an associates is pointless but if you have been in college for years, starting a stopping along the way and never earning a degree it matters.

Totally agree with this! I started college in 1988 and didn't get my first degree (an associate) until 2003. I started and stopped many times and thought I'd never get a degree in anything ever. So getting that first associate degree was really something for me. I went to the graduation ceremony and I was really proud of finally completing it.

Even if you're young and just starting college, getting an associate degree is a good way to break down the task into smaller chunks so it doesn't seem so long and overwhelming. Getting the associate usually isn't but a few extra credits along the way and most of your credits will apply toward the bachelor degree anyway.

It can help you get your foot in the door at a job in your field and by the time you finish your bachelor you'll have experience to go along with the degree. There's nothing wrong with getting an associate degree any way you look at it.
