      I start medical school next year. But I have a one year entrance course, mathematics, chemistry, biophysics and cellular biology.

      Meh. I want to get into the morgue NOW.

        BS in Comp Sci and in Math. Currently taking CS grad classes part time (not yet towards a degree, though when I have a stretch of time I can devote to it, I'll probably get a masters)

                      The nice thing about being in journalism is that, well, you end up with, at the very least, a passing knowledge of just about everything and deep knowledge in certain areas. When reading and editing is your job, you tend to experience a multitude of worlds through the written words you're reading and/or editing.

                      Yeah, I'm waxing poetic about what I do ... back to writing PR pieces for my corporate OVERLORDS.

                        My profession is surveyor, and I'm a graduated engineer for geodesy. Our grades are called different, no baccelors and masters here, hell knows how ours compare. But I trashed my profession 3 years ago and made my long time hobby my new profession, working as software developer now.

                          I am also doing BA Accounting, With Business Managament (First year).

                          From my experience you learn far more on the job than a degree will teach you, but it seems a necessary 'qualifer' to have a degree in order to apply for some jobs

                            I'm working on MSc-equivalent degrees in theoretical physics and applied physics, that'll take me another 2.5 years on estimate. Thinking about going for a Ph.D. after that, but that's a decision that I'll take in one or two years time.

                              Yup, journalists are the real professional students. We get paid to listen to people, analyze the info and write short essays.
