Jan. 23rd, 2008 06:09 pmHey, guys, just in case any of you were wondering, or thinking about it, or if you are ever in the future thinking about it, or if you have a friend who might be thinking about it, I have two pieces of advice for you.
(1) Go back to school right away. Get a graduate degree directly after your Bachelor degree.
(2) Don't ever give the University of Akron Department of Polymer Science any of your fucking tuition money.
(1) has a disclaimer, because of course you learn so much about the world and the way it works once you have an actual job out in industry, and you really bring a lot to your classes with your experience. That being said, eight fucking years without calculus is just too much to be expected to suddenly be able to summon it all into your head. Just sayin'. In the end, I would have done something different.
(2) has no disclaimers. Unfortunately I cannot follow my own advice here, but, y'know.
