The most important thing I learned this semester is that I can't take a telecourse.

Did very well in English, cited widescreenmuseum.com in a paper.

The biggest problem will be math - I am still waiting for the result. Hope it will be at least a "C".

Spasibo & dziekuje. (thanks & thanks)

Straight A's here. Philosphy 210, Communications 230, IT 205

It was hard, and I will take advantage of this break.

I actually had a nervous breakdown trying to get my comm thesis finished and turned in on time.

One B and the rest were A's!!

Posted by Aaron Mehocic (Member # 15) on 12-31-2005, 07:02 PM:

I had 32 A's. But then again I taught over 80 students. [Big Grin]

Congratulations to all you guys that finished well! [thumbsup]

I didn't do as hot this semester. I got 3 B's and a C. Calc 2 was the C. I totally geeked out on the final and only had time to answer about half of the questions.

I have been on the dean's list every semester since I started except this one. I didn't work as hard because I was so burned out. I haven't had a break this year since I took back-to-back summer semesters and only had three weekends all year without homework. Everytime I needed to do homework, it was like having a root canal. I just couldn't motivate myself towards the end of the year anymore. [sleep]

So glad it is done.

I took the sales position that I was asking advice for in another thread a while back. I am so pumped to not have any classes for a while. I need to get settled into my new job before I try adding school again. Plus I need the break! [Smile]

I already have a trip planned for the second week of January to go to Louisiana and Texas for demos.

Does anyone know of a reputable school that offers online degrees in Mechanical Engineering? I haven't found any yet and would like to continue my education while still working starting next fall. I figure between all the airplane rides and hotel stays, I will have plenty of time for homework.

Posted by Will Kutler (Member # 770) on 01-01-2006, 11:55 AM:

Well,

I'm glad everyone fared well.

Josh...fix them grades! [Mad]

But Josh, not sure of any online BS in Mechanical Engineering degree. Best to keep with an ABET accredited program. Also look into becomming a student member of SME..and look into taking the SME Certification exams upon graduation.

I have a couple of difficult classes this semester..but I'll do what I can tounderstand the material and pull off "A's". Unfortunately, these two classes are degree requirements, but I'll rarely use the information in the workplace. Anyhow, after this semester, the rest of my classes will be the "gravy train"...stuff that I enjoy and will need on the job. All goes well this semester and I think I'll definately graduate with Honors.

Cheers

Can't take classes if I'm not in town. Most professors I have had so far make attendance part of the grade. I will be traveling weekly and the chances of me being in town for classes are slim to none. I knew this going in though and am hoping that someone will offer a online program somewhere along the line. Plenty of master's courses for ME majors online but no BS degrees that I have found yet.

Congrats Will on your grades! [thumbsup]

Hey I've got a degree in BS and I had to do ALOT of traveling around to get it. Anyone need any assistance getting BS just e-mail me. [Big Grin]
