Change of Plans
For my masters degree, I still have 4 subjects (12 units) remaining before I can take the comprehensive exam, the result of which would determine if I can proceed in writing my technical paper alongside taking the Intensive Practicum. Getting my technical paper approved and passing the Intensive Practicum would earn me my masters degree in Special Education major in Hearing Impairment. Unfortunately students are allowed to take only 9 units every semester, but with the dean’s approval a student can carry 12 units (an overload) provided that the student is a full time student or a scholar lol and damn it am neither. Though I strongly feel that managing my time should not be any of their business but I respect the school’s decision. Given the odds, even if I finish the 12 units by March, take the comprehensive exam by summer and lets say I pass it and they’d grant me enrollment on the Intensive Practicum and Technical Writing by June of 2009, I’d still graduate by March 2009 as they don’t hold commencement exercises on October.
My course of action given the changes am facing, is to take the 9 units this second semester, enroll the other 3 units by June, take the comprehensive exam by October 2009, and hopefully with God’s grace, enroll on the Intensive Practicuum and Technical Writing by November and finish by March 2009.
Still a long shot but better that than having none to follow at all.
23 on the 23rd … presents are very much appreciated. lol!
