    I just went to school at 30 and noticed 2 things:

    1. i’m way more tired and have way less energy
    2. way more discipline and I understand things way faster, probably since my program is related to my undergrad.

    It is possible but it sucks going back to school after working. so stressful.

      I found it easier in general. no bullshit homework from 12 different classes all due at the same time and needing anywhere from 45 minutes to 3 hours of work each, no pretendo social heirarchy bullshit just 15 or so adults paying their own money to learn the same thing, probably other stuff. I have no energy, classes or not so, I didn’t really count that but it is indeed a thing.
