And I went and turned the paperwork in, and the school was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, this is supposed to take like three years. What are you talking about? I'm like, no, I'm done. Here's all my certifications.

I've completed everything. Now, they're like, well, how did you do advanced algebra and all this and that? Because I didn't have the grades for that stuff. And what I did was I paid somebody that knew how to do it, took the test for me, Pass all the correspondence and that's it. They were like, they were flipping out. They're like, this can't, because there's three or four kids started signing up.
