Going Back to School

I started back to school January 2010. I am studying Electrical Engineering and Computer Technology (EECT). I am going to Ivy Tech Community College of Indiana. I picked it mainly because of the cost. It also helped it is close to where I live and worked at the time. It was hard to get into at the time because the economy was so bad, that everyone was going back to school and it was at capacity. Because I had to take a placement test to get in and did not do as well in math as I had hoped I would I put off registering, so I could retake the test (the test sessions also filled up fast and missed retaking the test) so I missed the fall 2009 semester. When I registered for the spring 2010 semester I still had not retested for math so I was limited on the classes I could take. So I ended up taking classes at three different locations. They did not tell me that one of the classes at Elkhart was offsite at Goshen High School. Nowhere near where I worked, lived or even traveled by, actually it made the drive home longer.
