I slowed my classes down at the end because I didn't want to graduate and have to start repaying my student loans before I had enough hours to get on with a regional.
So how big of a deal is it that my degree shows 13 years to complete since I'm not a doctor? Where is the best place to explain what happened and will it hurt my "score" when rating my application? Also, my driving record only goes back 8 years. I know I had a fender bender in my early 20's but it is not showing. Do I just guess on the dates or not include it since it is not on the official record?
I don't have a good answer for you on the college time, although I suspect 13 years will not improve your score. For the traffic tickets and fender benders try to remember as best you can. If you had repairs done your insurance or something might gove you clues.
Also, check out the delta hiring thread as the info there is probably much more helpful to someone trying to get called than the poolie info. Read that thing top to bottom.
Good luck!
