    BA in Art History/Studio Art and a minor in Multicultural Studies.

    MA in Art History.

    Just started a program to get a second Masters in Library and Information Sciences.

    After that, I'm done. Completely, totally, ing done. When I first went back to school for my BA, I thought I'd want to be a student forever. Not anymore. I'm thoroughly over it.

    Started at UTPA and finished at UT, BS in Chemistry with an emphasis in Biochemistry.

    Currently in my third year in a MD/Ph.D program at UTMB.

    I'll probably end up doing research rather than practice though.

    went to University of Texas, doubled majored in Film and Government, don't know what the you could use it for, but I enjoyed the experience.

    I'm getting a degree in networking and also electronics, this is probably more of my thing than the Liberal Arts stuff I did originally. But I have no ing clue what the future will hold for me, I never thought I'd go back to school let alone get a bachelors degree in the first place. I probably should have just gone to a tech school to begin with, it's what I was originally thinking but did the Bachelor's degree for my parents. But I do miss the atmosphere of UT-Austin, i'll never be around so many hot chicks again in my life

    Didn't know you were in a combined program. How long is it and what's your PhD focus?

    My program is 6-7 years long, depending on how I end up spending the next couple of summers (and of course progress in the lab). My project focuses on the cry proteins produced from various strains of Bacillus thuringiensis upon its sporulation. The cry proteins contain an amount of parasporin protein (in literature they're commonly referred to as cyt toxins) that exhibit cytocidal activity towards various target cancer cells. I'll be trying to target certain cancer cells of various sorts (mainly MCF-7 of breast cancer).

    but you do need a pair of spurs tats on your calves to be successful, didn't he tell you that also? college education is corrupt and is probably the biggest scam in the world today, but you still have to take it no matter what

    I took a year off after undergrad, got rest and started the program.

    It's not as bad as it sounds.

    it's physically taxing, but a good 10-12 hour nap can solve anything

    I have to do more study to be a qualified psychologist, but I'm only 20 and pretty sick of school and uni so gunna go work as a counselor of some sort for a few years until I go back and do more study to become a psychologist - preferabily clinical

    BSc in Genetics, MSc in pharmacology with focus on neuroscience. Would've shot myself if I had transferred to PhD - people in my program took 7-9 years on average to finish.

    Did one year of postgraduate studies at a college that actually got me my job in the pharma industry.
