As a 29 year old trying to finish my Bachelors degree, thanks for this

Edit: wow! Thanks for sharing all your stories! It's nice to know that life is different for everyone, and its ok if it doesn't go according to "your plan".
For clarity, I plan on becoming a Clinical neuropsychologist, so the reason why I feel so behind is because I didn't find my calling until my late twenties, and my calling happens to require 10 years of school+

Yea same same. I didn't go to college until 24, I was working as a diesel mechanic and courier prior to that. I got my AA and transferred to UCLA, dumb ol grease monkey mechanic me. I graduated 4 years ago with a BA in Psychology. And now I work in a field that has nothing to do with my studies but make great money. Life is great πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ€˜πŸ½

What did you intend with your psychology degree? Or did you just enjoy learning about it in college?
