Well, after a sum total of seven years of undergrad study (chopped up and sprinkled across a number of years, degrees and states) I am now only 3 more years away from actually graduatin'. LOL So I admire the clarity of your plan right down to the bottom of my toesies.

In fact, if it wasn't for the excellent credit and 100% workplace relevance of my current course, I would love to be doing a different degree altogether - but in three years time when this one is under my belt and I'm being handsomely renumerated for my efforts I'll be free to pursue whatever path I want to then.
