One of my friends is stressing because she has to take 18 credits this semester, and 19 her last semester. I think that I finally convinced her to slow it down a little, walk in May, and still take summer school. I garuntee you that no one in the "real world" cares how long you took to get that degree.. they just care that you got it. The only reason most people get a degree anymore (I'm not saying all professions..) is to show that they can commit.. and 4+ years is a commitment. Companies like to see that you took teh time to work hard. I'm sure that there are plenty of people out there with the skills, but they may have been job hopping for the last 4 years to get those skills. Who do you think the company will pick?
