(no subject)
So guys and gals.
I have a dilema.
I just met with my advisor at Eastern. Turns out I only need 8 classes left to graduate. Well, maybe even 7. Depending where I stand with what my religion class transfered over as.
But!
That means all I would have is ONE more semester of Eastern, and then a little semester with 2-3 classes. Or maybe one semester with 6 classes. Then a little baby semester with 1 or 2 classes.
This got me excited.
HOWEVER.
I'm applying for the care program for teacher certification. And this program is "tracked" for all the kids who are too ignorant to manage their own schedules. Meaning the 5 or 6 classes and random bullshit for that class (All adding up to material which could easily be taken in one semester) is Tracked out so that it happens over 3. That would force me to be here longer than I need to be. On top of that the way they run, I probably wouldn't be able to take my rarely offered math classes, so more realistically I'd be at eastern for 4 more semesters (As a bacheloers with the education certification really taking an estimated 5 years to complete).
So, What do I do?
From a monetary perspective, and from the same part of my brain that holds a foul taste for eastern, I would LOVE to only need one more semester to graduate. Hell maybe I could take two summer courses and then be done even soon. And I'd be done with my master's feasibly in 2 more years. Awesome. Then I could look into other forms of entrance into teaching (as I only had an entire lesson on "other ways to earn a teaching degree"). And I'll be happy, have money, save time. Etc.
So, If I make care however, I'm stuck here. I'm paying more. I'm grumpy all the time. With no free time and very little left of my soul. But I'll have my B.S. and my certification.
So right now, I'm thinking getting certified isn't going to be on my top priorities right now....
I don't know.
And of course no one can really answer any questions regaurding this.
Fuck. I just realized. If I didn't have to take these stupid teaching courses to get into CARE, I could have been out in just one more semester.
Fucking eastern, never even let me know taht was possible.
Damn I could have been done in a year.
Now I'm annoyed.
Time to do some internet searching for alternative methods into teaching!
