Heh, took me 10 years to get a Bachelor's degree, between 2 years at community college, about 3 years at a four year college taking one major (Electrical Engineering), flunking that major, taking a year off, changing majors, and finally finishing in another major (Computer & Information Science).
The ironic thing is, during my year off I first found out about the electrical apprenticeship, and seriously considered it. But I decided I needed to finish getting the degree. If only I knew then what I know now....
