I'm currently going to college. I'm not sure exactly how many aspies go to (or went to) college, but I would think that a lot of aspies would go to college. I say this because most diagnosed with Asperger's are boys, and boys have a stronger math side of the brain, and a lot of the time aspies like math or computer related subjects. It's likely that if someone was to have a mathematics or computers concentration for a career that they'd have to go to college at some point in their lives. I'm not sure if this is true, but it sounds right from what I've heard that a lot of aspies are interested in.

I have close to 200 credit hrs. of college, mostly upper-division classes, and a Bachelor of General Studies. I changed majors so many times because I had so many interests. With just a few more classes, I could get B.A.s in English and Psychology. I really love science, but was unable to get too far because of severe problems with math. Anyway, I am currently studying Spanish from a CD collection I bought, and I'm maybe half way through. I wish I could afford to go to school forever.
Cheers,
Martin |

| I would have loved the "traditional" college experience, but I lacked help in planning, not to mention finances. So I stopped after I graduated from (alternative) high school. |
