Rich, Kudos on: 1) making the decision to try the MBA route; and 2) being honest enough with yourself to know it’s not right and to make the (painful) decision to change paths again. I’ve done similar things in the past… sometime over a beer I can tell you about my start down the M.Ed path toward teaching in a public high school. I took a pretty severe financial hit for leaving that path, too, but it wound up ultimately working out with great opportunities. You do have to do what is right for you – and congrats on making that tough decision. Dan

P.S. And if I hear of anything, I’ll let you know.

I know you did the right thing for you and for us. I’m glad you took the steps to withdraw from the program, even if they were hard to do. <3

a big step, but obviously one you’re comfortable with. congratulations and good luck on your next endeavour – whatever it ends up being!

You’ve thought about this decision for so long, and I know it was a tough one. I know the future holds a lot more joy for you than you thought it did, and I’m so glad you took the risk to pursue it. :-)

Good for you. I read your last few posts about this topic with interest. It sounds to me like you are making a wise and informed decision.

I’m glad you had the courage to do what had to be done. I never really saw you as a ‘suit’ to begin with, so I hope you can find something that is more up your alley soon.
