It's not too late, PIYA. :wink: I encourage you to strongly consider going after your dream... :yes:
Thank you for the congrats -- it actually went quite fast. And now I'm getting cold feet! :biggrin:

Sunny did you take the GRE or the Millers?  I suck at math so I'm considering the Millers.  Either way my test taking is not up to par!  I took a $500 GRE prep course a couple of years back just so they could tell me that I still suck at math!  :rolleyes:
Take time to smell the roses.

Sunny

Holy smokes, kimmi! $500 for a prep course?!?!? That's simply insane!

I took the MAT...7 years ago! (well, it was 4.5 years before I started school) & fortunately, that score was accepted.

Have you checked into your alma mater for their online grad program(s)?

Tomorrow is a big interview for me...*fingers crossed*...this may be the one. :smile:

:rotfl: Thanks for your dedication, PIYA! :biggrin: I must say that as the phone calls are coming in for other interviews & I've been vacillating on the career path to take for weeks now...my heart is leading me towards one clearcut direction at this point.

So, luck or fate...the ending of one chapter & the beginning of a new one is imminent. :smile:

Thank you.
