I passed my first on-line college course, Organizational Behavior! Took my exam this morning and scored 90%! Whoo-hoo!

I'm 53 and haven't taken classes in about a million years so I was feeling pretty rusty and really worrying about cramming all this stuff in my brain! It got a little stressful because the test site popped up an error message and kicked me out before I was done. I was practically hyperventilating! I called in and they reset it and told me all my stuff was saved and I was able to finish. Whew - more excitement than I needed.

Anyway, a small victory on my way to earning the degree I've put off for so many years. I can do this!

Sorry to t/j, but I read your course as Organizational Beavers. I thought you were going for a new type of biology degree

Congratulations, and keep up the good work!
