Yes, and not sure. I at least like having the degree, though. However, I disliked the lack of freedom when it came to course selection (thanks to the gen ed system) and that they charged you if you wanted to take over a certain number of credits. If there hadn't been an arbitrary cap, I would have probably taken 8 or 9 courses a semester if the schedules didn't conflict.

I also had a terrible advisor whose shitty advice ultimately kept me from taking a lot of courses I wanted, either because they were discontinued or because I didn't get the pre-reqs in time.

My masters-level stuff wasn't bad, but then my employer discontinued its tuition-reimbursement program so I put that on the back-burner. If I find another employer who with tuition-reimbursement, I'd probably go back to finish my MBA. However, in general, if I did any more than that I'd probably pick a different subject.

I wish I'd gone to college, but it's too late now.


No such thing as too late. I met a student in his 50s.

I knew more than the teacher who actively worked with these languages.


Had that experience with a VB class in college =x I had taken a computers course in high school and wanted to learn more, but I wound up knowing better than the professor.
