I had figured it out that you were back to school (we don’t see you around that much in the blogosphere); and I glad you did *hug*! I know that you will be rather successful!

Political science, eh? I knew it LOL …

ROFL ROFL ROFL no, I am not done laughing yet LOL LOL LOL so, French girl is taking French as a second language…you kill me!

Girl, the path wasn’t smooth but you did it just the same, and that is all that counts! Congrats !

Have a great week, Student girl !

Cheers

@beaverboosh – It is very annoying. I’m a bit over that now because I somehow got into and I already have a degree so it doesn’t worry too much. But I feel bad for immigrants who must go back to school in order to work in their field. It must be hell.

@Final_Transit – It should be okay now. I mean, I have a lot of stories to tell about university but they are more observations than real frustrations. As said, at least I already have a degree which employers usually recognize and I don’t work in a very specific regulated field, so…

@Angela May – I find it hard to study while working, especially since universities don’t seem to realize a lot of us are not full-time students, but full-time employees and part-time students!

@Tulsa Getleman – It is funny indeed! I wish the persistence grade wold show on my report

@Lynx – Thank you! I’m curious now: which university did you attend?

@Soleil – Oh, don’t worry, I have a few posts in progress about university life. It’s an endless source of fun and observation for me!

@Sidney – Kafka, indeed!

@Brenda – I personally think the TOEFL is a big business and some candidates really don’t need to prove their English is good enough, but anyway… I don’t mind, I passed and that’s it. Never gonna take it again though, it’s expensive and quite stupid.

@Cynthia – I have always been fairly lucky with the Canadian administration – it’s just university that is a bit nonsense, hence my surprise.

@Nigel – You said it!

@Linguist-in-Waiting – Well, I still have my French degree and employers know that so it’s not too bad. But I wish I could have gone into a master degree directly.

@barbara – Canada isn’t usually that bureaucratic, it’s just the university system… or this particular university.

@RennyBA’s Terella – Age doesn’t matter: both of my parents are students!

@Seraphine – J’existe, j’existe, mais je suis quoi au juste! The system is way more efficient than in France in some many area, it’s just university I think.

@Beth – I have been told that it was difficult for all Canadians, not just “new” Canadians. Somehow, it makes me feel better but I wonder why the system isn’t easier.
