Hmm... thinking back, I think the only reason I was able to get through school in 5 years (combined bachelor's/master's program, plus a minor) was my AP credit. A LOT of people take an extra semester or two to finish.
This isn't quite the same thing, but I knew a guy with a serious case of "perpetual student syndrome" - it took him somewhere around 20 YEARS to do his doctorate.
