  1. One more thing I would like to state is that in lieu of trying to suit all your online degree classes on days of the week that you finish off work (since most people are worn out when they return), try to have most of your classes on the week-ends and only a few courses in weekdays, even if it means taking some time off your end of the week. This is really good because on the weekends, you will be a lot more rested plus concentrated with school work. Thanks a lot for the different points I have discovered from your website.
