So me and my best friend have been science junkies the last well 5 years especially.

This year he and I have decided to go back to University (or MRC) to get our Bsc in Biology.

Has anyone else done this in their mid 30s? Its exciting for me and I'm thrilled to go back and learn full time, but its a sacrifice obviously for at least 4yrs and a bit nerve wracking because of that.

The thought of Math always scares me so we're taking a Math 30 course in the summer just to familiarize ourselves with it again.

Also if anyone has their Bsc and is a Biologist of any shape/form, I'd love to hear about what you do, what you would recommend for specialization, microbiology, evolutionary biology, marine, etc..
