You are reporting the following post to the moderators for review and possible removal from the forum Poster: Sprint Geezer Subject: RE: Masters in statistics. Degree of difficulty - starting over at age 30. Body: I took engineering for my first undergrad. I was totally lost in the workload--I passed, but I had no idea what I was doing, particularly in calculus. I couldn't tell you exactly why my answers were either right or wrong. I switched fields, did another undergrad, and went to law school, took my bar exams, etc.. I then wanted to have my EIT certification, which required passing the FE exam. I was dreading the math, especially after basically 10-15 years of not doing any. IT WAS A BREEZE! I aced it. All of a sudden, with all the noise of school removed, I understood for the first time! It was like in the Matrix when Neo sees everything in code. It was so incredibly transparent and easy! PDE's, Lorentz transforms, Bessel functions, z-transforms, Hamiltonian operators, EASY! By "noise of school", I of course mean girls, sports, partying, and pranks. All of which I was able to control much better later in life. Re-learning that stuff, or really learning it for the first time, was one of the best feelings I've ever had. Do it. Hit the submit button below if you want us to review the post.
