I'm in my second year of a BSc in Psych. I'm also hoping to pick up some anthropology papers this year.

I'm hoping to be in my last year part-time, but I keep saying that, and then finding another course to do!! I'm extramurally at Massey in Albany, doing post grad cognitive behavioural therapy, which is so interesting. I'm so looking forward to this year because it's all client work, rather than papers! Scary!

Jess, I did kinda. I started my degree in S2 2006 and then had Josh in Feb 2007. I studied right up until I had him (actually missed the exam as I was in hospital). But I decided not to study S1 2007 and start back S2 2007. However had some issues at home and my dr made the descision for me to stop studying. I'm heading back this year and so looking and hanging out for it.
Exciting Jade, I enjoyed Congnitive Behaviour when I did my Psych papers.

i had Taine while doing my teaching diploma, and Jake while doing my post-grad. Both fine, BUT you do have to be very well planned and try not to procrastinate.
also, those mature students always got the best grades at Massey, and always worked really hard too.

Susieq - you are never to old to study! If you want to GO FOR IT! Don't let anyone say otherwise.
I finished my study last year June 06 and then found out a month later I was pregnant. I did my Bach.of Ed (primary).
Awesome to everyone who is studying or going to. Well done on giving yourself wonderful opportunities

I'm planning TTC around being due Nov - Feb its ok if I miss the start of the semester but I don't want to miss exams.
So basically from this time next year onwards we can. Beginning of 2nd semester would be doable as well.

I was planning a simular thing too for next year lol and Eva nooo lol 2 kids in two years is enough lol my youngest was a opsy thanks to a stupid midwife in aucks and me listening to her lol i like the small age gaps my oldest is 13 months now and my partners daughter is 3 next weeks and they get along really well and love playing together so i wanna try for a simular age gap but i plan on adding a few months to fit ttc around my studies but hmmm that plan might just be a dream at the moment as we have heard some unpleasent things regarding my partners sons mothers lifestyle so seeing a lawyer on thursday if we get him i dont think my partner will want to have another child :S whats that saying "its the way the cookie crumbles?" hehehe sorry for the long post kinda bored.
Cheers,
Jess
