Advice for Collegitis?!?

I'm having a tough time going towards my bachelor's online, I live in a rural area and cannot afford to move, I have 2 community colleges near & really don't know what I want out of my education. I have 60 hours of junior college credit under me, I didn't pass college algebra thereby not getting my A.A in general studies. I am really tired of college and the pressure and working and the pressure of the real world. I guess after trying really hard in algebra and failing put me in a tailspin(by the way I have good grades before then a 3.6 GPA). I wouldn't mind going back and getting a specialized A.A for 20 hours or so, rather than going for 60 more hours and still not have a job. I'm very confused and tired of the whole ordeal. I just don't know if I am truly "college" material, and that doesn't bother me, wasting time does. Any advice?

Some careers I'm considering: law enforcement or legal jobs, freelance writer, something in health care but probably not nurse(for personal reasons

You may not think you are not college material, but your GPA tells me you are very capable. OK so you couldn't pass Algebra. No problem. Either find a degree that doesn't require algebra or get a tutor to help you when you retake it. Even though a college degree may not make a person any smarter, our society opens more doors to those that have the degree than those that don't. I have a couple of advanced degrees and I had to use a tutor. There is no shame in that. Just get the degree.

If you feel you just can't do it, then start talking to the most successful people in the fields you said you are considering. Setup an interest interview, not for a job, but for their advice. Tell them what you are looking to do and ask them what their recommendations would be as to how to best do it. You may discover a degree is not required. Or that you can really accomplish what you want a different way than you had previously considered.

Whatever you get into, it will really help you long term if you can do something you really love to do and would do it for free, if you didn't require money to live with. Best wishes for your success.

Don't give up! I, as a student who has a part-time job, find it hard at times. My assignments bog me down and I have to travel to class daily. I keep telling myself that it'll all be worth it in the end. I have my days where I feel I have accomplished nothing, but I push myself to keep at it when I want to call it quits.

As for algebra, there are many good resources online that explain it. Try googling Ambi's Math Resources. I have done that plus gone to the second hand bookstores to pick up Algebra for Dummies, a GED, and a SAT book. I find these are very helpful. Good luck, and hang in there!
