If you have a job where you could train someone up in two weeks to adequately replace you, that's something to consider also.

I agree with this. When I left my most recent position to go back to school full-time, I gave them about six weeks notice, and it was just fine. If you have a good relationship with your manager(s) and you are leaving for a reason other than just another job across town, it's very possible that you can give more notice and leave on a very positive note.
