Next brother down has a doctorate in physics from Princeton. He had full rides to Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and I think Brown. He liked Princeston the best after spending time at them.

I got a graduate degree at night while working full time in my mid to late twenties. I'm not sure I would recommend doing it this way as it took much of the fun out of life.

For too many years I've been saying the same thing. I could handle going to school full time again no problem. Working full time and trying to finish graduate degree before I die.... starting to increasingly sound like torture.

Do you wish you'd finished college?

I was doing that at 17yrs old. Full time plus and a full load at college

I could have done that at 17 too. 😄
(I did work through undergrad, but only part time.)

When I was in college, there were a few middle-aged guys I had classes with. They were working on undergrad degrees just because they wanted to, not for career advancement. I have a lot more respect for them now because I couldn't imagine doing the same thing myself for grad school or whatever. My intellectual curiosity on a topic these days probably peaks at the point I read the first half of a book and then abandon it to watch a couple YouTube videos.

I have no advice, but I hope it's a good experience for you.
