for me, I am going back to school, and Spring courses start in January for where I go to school. The schools I know of have “fall” and “spring” and “summer” courses.

if you hate your job, find a new one and quit the one you are in. if you hate it why stay? I hated a job that paid very well, and I had great health insurance and had good money going into a 401b. But I hated the job, and it got to the point where I was getting sick physically and mentally because of how much I disliked it.

Do you have to work? Do you get student loans? some of those things to consider because if you have to be in school to keep the loans in deferrment, the take the courses if there are courses that you want to take……. If you have to work, then work….
