I gotta say thanks for all your support guys...I was a little worried that people would think I'd totally lost the plot so it's nice having people around who are supportive over me making such a big change (as if the police wasn't big enough!!!!)]]> Mon, 23 Jun 2008 16:40:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18477&PID=421199&title=geek-girl-strikes-again#421199 <![CDATA[Geek Girl Strikes again!! : YAY!!! ]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18477&PID=420963&title=geek-girl-strikes-again#420963 Author: NeoshasMummy

Wow I wasnt very good at science in school, I also love those sorts of crime investgation programs, but I wouldnt be able to do the study to get there

I am instead studying BACC at Massey (Accountancy) but have stopped as last semster was such a struggle being so tired.

There is always someone who has to point out the bad huh? I was trying to forget it's only a few weeks away....actually I'm itching to start now....oh how innocent I am!

Of course my loan has to go through for last semester before I can add all the other papers for this semester and for summer school...2 more weeks until I'm official! ACK!

Yep the basic intro chem paper that is just like 7th form Chemistry (123.103 I think it is). I know the books I have aren't the ones that they say to get but they are pretty much the same as they have all the info in them for social and brain psych, and I can give you a cheap deal (after how much they cost me to buy them brand new).

I'll check into which books I need too.

And is taking it to whole new levels of geeky.

Lets see, I'm throughly obssessed with CSI and forensics and one police career option for me is CSA (crime scene attendent eg CSI type thing) BUT I need a forensic qualification. BUT to get into that I need a science degree with at least a B- average. WTF? I haven't done science since 5th form at school.

Soooo I'm left with 2 options...quit my moaning and switch to a science degree with a heavy dose of Chemistry and Biochemistry OR quit my moaning and find another career option once in the police.

Guess which one I chose? Give you a clue. Not option B.

Wish me luck for next semster as I take on Sociology, Psychology and Intro Chem. ACK!!! (and yet so exciting!!!!) ]]> Mon, 23 Jun 2008 10:54:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18477&PID=420597&title=geek-girl-strikes-again#420597
