As I progress further through school I am noticing that the classes I need are widely spread (time wise) through the day. With my current job I can only take classes from 8:30am - 12:45pm, and its getting harder to find classes to fill that range.

The question is...

Would it make sense to get an Associates first (5 classes away), find a new job, then continue my bachelors?

 

Just push through it. Something tells me you don't have enough ambition to complete your bachelor's after removing yourself from the school environment.

 

I have no intention in removing myself from school......

 

I wouldn't even think about an AA degree. Working 9-5 and going to school, I know how hard it is to get classes that fit.
If you quit your job, you might have a hard time freeing up time like you have now.

I'd keep it pushin' and do my best to allow work to be flexible in any way possible.

 

I would change your hours first if at all possible.
Whether you go for the AA or not, try not to break stride in your studies by getting trapped in a job with no future.

I picked up two AAs the semester before I transfered to CSUN, but only out of convenience.
I had to take one extra course that semester to satisfy the state prerequisite. Since I was working part-time, the extra work wasn't a big deal.

 

no, power through it. do not take any breaks.

 

werd

i can't imagine going back to school again (besides the ladies)...its just not in me anymore

 

if you're not paying for school, stop wasting money on booze

 

qft :hs:

 

I wouldn't bother getting an Associates if you're gonna get a Bachelor's anyway. Keep working thru it....I used to work 8-5 and I convinced my work to let me make my own hours while obtaining my degree
Otherwise, I don't know how I could've balanced a "typical" work schedule and my crazy class schedule.
