Last semester I finished a gradutate course as an external student in the statistics program of the best university in the country. I have a goal of getting into grad school this year, but I'm old-ish (30 yo in april). The fact that i was able to be one of the best grades (if not the best) really made me happy.
I struggle with the idea of going to grad school for a while now. My family gives me zero support and during the years where I was younger and could focus solely on getting, my parents had a massive divorce, which didn't help me at all.
I don't test very well, and the entrance exams tend to be tough. Even though I switched areas after those years (I wanted to ge into economics and now statistics) I feel a bit more confident in my math skills. With the added maturity of a few years, I think I can manage getting in without my parent's support.
I only have to not drop the study habbits. But it is hard with work from home and the depression vibes my country is in (Brazil, btw).
