    Sounds like my Math teacher. "1 person got a B so no curve"

    Seriously, my mech design teacher is the exact opposite. No curves and the exams are stupid hard.

    So I, and 80% of the class, failed heat transfer last semester. Taking it this semester and the professor is almost too easy. He's of the mindset that students should be learning instead of focusing on grades. Hence, he's curving our hw, quiz and test grades individually. Then putting them all together, and curving those grades. And then, taking that grade and curving it again lol.

    It's kind of a joke but the professor is super cool and insanely knowledgeable so it's a pretty neat class.
    Give me him.

    Please.

    I'm getting burnt out fast! I've been working on average 45-50 hours a week and taking 4-5 classes a semester for 2 years now. Hell, this past summer I took 2 summer courses just to stay on schedule. My social life is nonexistent...literally, I have no friends. My wife is hating the fact that I have practically no time to do married couple stuff, like go out or take a nice day trip on a Saturday. We don't have kids...thank God, but this work and school overload is killing my personal life. I am less than a month from getting 2 associate's degrees at 26 years old . I plan on going for my bachelor's and want to get it done by the time I'm 28.

    Anyone have any tips for me to help me get through this? Right now I'm considering just saying "fuck this shit, it's not worth my personal life being destroyed for a piece of paper".

And I thought my 3 classes this quarter was nuts Every quarter ratchets up I swear

    Boobs are good
    I don't think a masters is necessary in accounting though. Push for advisory as a focus and get your extra curriculars up. Seduce the big four (though now it's more like the big three) and get a staff job after you complete undergrad. You should be around $73k/year fresh out of school. Two years later you'll be roughly $85k. Once you become manager or senior manager you will start to see the low triple digits. The benefits are great and you will actually like your job.


    Do it once and do it right. Also, you don't *need* to get your CPA unless you are set on doing people's taxes.

    IDK, I've seen all angles of accounting and I think my favorite is from behind, but in your case, I'd suggest Advisory.

    Also, I get to touch her boobs.
