Oh yeah. I realized that I've been in school too long when it dawned on me that I've been in school longer than my undergraduate students have been alive! God I feel old!

I feel like a thread hijacker now! I am glad to know I am not the only one that's sick of school though, or feeling slightly out of place, shall we say? ~ Sigh ~

Hm...

A Masters in Science Fiction Studies at the University of Liverpool (if the program still exists).

Maybe an LLM or JSD--I actually really like the study of law (it's why I went to law school initially--academic, rather than professional, interest).

Probably not culinary school, but I'd take a bunch of classes.

I'd go to culinary school or get a degree in landscape design:

It's not a time/money issue, but a fear of math more complicated than Algebra,lol. If I felt comfortable with math, I'd get a PhD in paleoclimatology.

However, I'm currently pondering a PhD in maybe linquistics or cultural anthropology or I don't know what. I'm finishing up my BA right now and would be applying to graduate school this year (to start in 2010).

Realistically (bo-ring): Neonatal nurse practitioner as that would further my current career path. Or go to law school, as I have a poli sci degree that was intended to be used in that manner.

Unrealistically: Architecture. I am an architecture junkie with no background except a couple of art history architecture classes.

[climbermom]

Definitely med school, although I would also like a BS in biology and a BA in math. (I have a BS and MS in chemistry.)

I would definitely go on to grad school in the child and family development field... I'm receiving my bachelor's in this in August of this year. Ideally, I'd go on to Waldorf certification... I think even if I never used it to teach at a Waldorf school, it would be life changing in the most wonderful way and make me a better person and parent.

I hope I really can do this someday (life goal: PhD before I die.) Time and money are definitely the only issues keeping me from doing it right away... that and the fact that I really want to focus on my daughter right now.

Definately culinary school

I am a teacher for medically fragile students and I'm getting my masters in autism. However I have a deaf/blind students who I just love working with. I have a team of specialists helping me set up programming and I find the whole thing just facinating. So if I had limitless cash and time I would get a Phd in deaf/blind studies.

[FancyPants]

I really like to go back and become a mechanic.


but if this is some fantasy where my time in school is added onto my whole life (i.e. I get to live that much longer) and a "degree" proper is required... I'd get a master in some mathematics discipline. Probably applied statistics.

[Gator-mom]

Medical School. I've recently realized that I am AWESOME at science and I LOVE helping people. If only I had known this pre children....

I'm jealous. I wish I had done cultural anthropology. Because I am so not using my "useful" BA.

I am getting a PhD in Education but I really wanted a PhD in Gender Studies. I choose Education because of the limited field of jobs in Gender Studies following graduation, especially to stay in Oklahoma where our family lives.
