Am I to old to go back to school?

Question

I am 27 and sick of having jobs that don't pay great and require hard physical labor. I was wondering if at my age am I to old to go back to school to learn a skill to get a better job and find a career.

Answer 1

I went back to college at 39, and it was the best move I ever made.

Answer 2

Too old? WTF? WHAT exactly is TOO OLD? And WHO says so anyway? I am 60 and attend college part time working on a 4 year degree. I have a friend near my age in law school full time, and another full time for business administration. Are you saying that 27 is TOO OLD or are you saying the I and my 2 friends my age are TOO OLD? You are NEVER too old to learn new tricks! You need an attitude adjustment. You are being a defeatist. Or are you really so stupid as to believe that at my and my friends advanced ages of 60-something, we should NOT be allowed in college because we are TOO OLD? This attitude of yours smacks of age prejudice and it is NOT pretty.

Answer 3

no go to college fore a degree
