I have one more class after tonight to finish up my degree. Got my A+ and MSCE but still doing construction because I can't take a pay cut just yet. Although I fix computers on the side for about $25-$35 an hour and get quit a few calls just from word of mouth. A couple of the guys from class have decent starting jobs, but most can't find one. But it could be different in your area. I would say you should have some knowledge and intrest in computers other wise it is more then likely a waste of your time.

well, just for a follow up, i am now signed up to start school in june, i decided to go with electrical engineering, instead of IT, there is still a great deal of IT classes involved in electrical engineering, but the best part of it is i will be learning to build hardware, printed circuit boards and such, should be an interesting journey, total cost for my 3 years 9 months of education is $72,000, and i will have a bachelors degree in electrical engineering and communications......

man, i couldn't even imagine going back to school when i'm 24. i'm 19 right now, and i'm about to graduate wyotech in 3 months. i just took the summer off, then went right back. i'm really liking the way they have it set up, because it's probably the most accelerated automotive program in america. i'll be completley done w/ my core auto program in 2 weeks already, and i've only been here for 6 months. but i don't think i could handle goin to school like you're going to, congrats. good luck
