I went back to school in my mid-30's. Best decision I could have made. I now have a job that I love and work with people who I like, which was certainly not the case prior to (or during) my re-education.

I found it easier - being at a different stage of life, I did not party as much as before, and being married I was not chasing women. I was still able to hold down a part-time job. I was also more committed to my studies as I was doing something that I wanted (and my life experience had taught me what I did not want to do with my life).
