It is a dream of mine of doing a degree. I did things the other round had a family youngish, partly because I was always under the assumption I was not bright enough. My parents wanted me to follow a vocational route which I did primarly because they saw my brother do his degree 10 years previously and still not be able to use it (Fine Art). This changed though years later and he now makes a very good living.
Now I wish to prepare myself to do it via distance learning, as I need to still pay my bills and feed my kids.
Can I do it though? I messed around in high school and got average and below average GCSE's, that was without any homework or revision. I always used to believe when Teachers told me I was useless and never amount to anything, so why bother. I am not shy of hard work.
I now want to do it for me, my own curiosity in the subjects I am interested in.
Any opinions?
