I say go for it; you don't know until you try it. Maybe for whoever said that, it's a bad idea, but for you, it might be alright. I wouldn't take it full-on in the beginning, obviously, but take that first semester to "test the waters". Take one class, or two, or more and then go from there. That's what I'm doing with my MLS right now. I really thought it was going to be tough with 2 classes and working full-time, but now that I am in it, it's not so bad and I can get a good handle on things. And I know I will have a better idea for next semester, what to take and how much to take on.

You can do it, you're a Wells woman! And I know everyone says that but it's true, you know it.

thats the thing: i am part time, but even with only 2 classes and 10 credits, i'm in class nearly 20 hours a week. on top of that, we're expected to put in 20 hours a week studying outside of class. its really a fulltime job in and of itself.

youll have to pay outta pocket for asthma meds that shit cost alot. i had to do it until my insurance kicked in. sometimes its almost worth it to buy in instead of go without ESPECIALLY if you have existing conditions ie, asthma!
