Once you're married and have a family and are tied down and stuff you can't really do that...

When I went off to Uni last year my mum got really interested in Uni stuff and did her Foundation Diploma and Art and Design (essentially a do everything in a year to find your specialisation) and next year starts her 3 year BA(Hons) Fine Art course.

Not bad for a fifty-something year old.

ahh that makes me feel a lot better about myself, thanks

ok then i will make you feel worse

at my campus there are several 30+ years olds and my experience was that they all left after 6 motnhs or maybe 1 year. it was too hard for them to get back into the learning process. you should better hurry to get your ass into a uni. but maybe i am wrong and art related courses are less hard as my bachelor of science

Excactly the same thing here... They all did excellent in math and other subjects like it, except what the whole course was about. Programming. so they all dropped out after one year. I think older people have a harder time understand things that are completely new to them. But if you work in the games industry for 10 years, then decide to take an art diploma, my bet is that you'll Ace it
