I'm graduating from college! Well, actually, it's a college that's transitioning into a university. I'm getting a Bachelor's of Arts in Sociology. I'm also on the Honors Society. I'm very excited! I can't believe it. I'm almost 33 years old and I'm getting a Bachelor's Degree.

Congratulations!

Remember: it's never too late. Buckminster Fuller only started his education at 32 in the midst of terrible personal problems. Rabbi Akiva, one of the most famed Talmudic scholars, was illiterate until the age of 40, when he began learning how to read along with his children.

Congratulations! You're never too young to complete your education.

Now, I must ask you, did your degree plan for sociology require you to take a statistics course? I'm asking because I've been interested in sociology, but I'm bad at statistics.

To answer Descartes's question, yes, there is some math and statisics involved in Sociology. Last summer, I took something called Sociological Analysis, last semester I had to take Research Methods, and this semester I'm taking Data Analysis. These are higher level courses which can be quite difficult. I'm currently having difficulty in Data Analysis, and I had trouble in my other classes, too. Fortunately, my professors have been very helpful. However, your school might have different requirements. You should talk to your advisor and ask what the requirements are.
