I want to go back to high school

I would be such a brilliant student now, after experiencing life.

I guess that's one of the reasons I will probably do the PhD, because I want to have the opportunity at excelling in school. I did that when I did the Masters in 2001-2 in the UK, now I want to experience the US education system.

Was searching last night for some. Found one at University of Minnesota-Rochester - PhD in Human Resource Development which mixes Education courses will HR courses. I emailed the head of school to get more details on the courses.

Now I am about to read recommendations on how to look for a PhD. This has got to be such a careful decision. Those of you who've just been reading this blog wouldnt have read the dilemna I found myself in last summer.

Anyway, I will be more careful this time in my search.

I have often thought to myself...what I would give to be fifteen again knowing what I know now. I think many things would be done differently. Wonder if there would be any Dr. in front of the D? Hmmm.....(not that I have regrets)

You going back with your grown up knowledge in a teen body or you just going back as a plain teen?High school was too much pressure so I not sure I want to do it again.I was a nervous wreck months before CXC came around

No pressure for me in high school. I can't remember pouring over CXC notes for those exams. I think in those days they were easier, since I did very little studying and ended up with 2 ones and 4 twos.

Would go back in a teen body with my grown up knowledge
