Not by any measure. I'm in my fourth year, going to be graduating a semester later than planned :| But after I graduate I have three more years. I'm far from being through with it so I don't think I've even given myself the time to think about being "over" school. I've also talked to a lot of the students going the same path as me and they've all said that their undergraduate they hardly learned shit compared to what they're learning now. Something about learning more in the first week than their entire undergraduate, which I'm sure was an exaggeration, but still I think there's something to be said about that. Then again they're not being forced to take stupid ass core classes and they chose that path for their post-graduate education.

JC, I agree with you. I have been feeling that way for awhile now...I've realized I don't fully enjoy this but I don't reaaaally know what I want to do yet with my life. Its stressful, ugh. But yea, I just wanna graduate and get this over with...
I'm in my 4th year but I have one more year (taking 5 in total to grad) so yeah.

I'm only a college freshman, so I definitely don't feel like I'm over school. I still have a long way to go until I graduate. I'm taking 18 credits in fall '10 and spring '11 so that I won't have to graduate a semester late. I'm looking forward to taking higher-level classes once I've taken enough 100-level courses this semester and next semester.

I used to love school. Now I look forward to vacations. Maybe some instructors just expect too much from their students.

no. i graduate in less than 2 months and have no prospects for the future. i love my school, and my friends even more. after i graduate, i'll most likely have to move back home and live with the fam. life is only going downhill after college.

i've been over school and now i feel this way about work. i lie my jobs but i'm just tired of working. it seems like i rarely have enough time to do what i actually want to do. the way things are going now i'm thinking i wanna retire by age 23/24.

3 months left in school, probably won't have trouble finding a job. I've felt burned out since sophomore year though. I'm excited to finally be making real money and being totally independent, but I'm going to miss not having responsibilities and lengthy vacations.

I graduated a few months ago, I got pretty over uni in the last semester, I raged at all of my assesments and group work, oh how I hated group work.

i hate group work because the useless group members want you to do all the work and when you try to set up meetings no one wants to go because they have other obligations and when you finally meet up no one knows what's going on and no one does their work until the last day and you end up having to organize everything and turn it in because you nkow you can't trust anyone else to do shit

I'm definitely over the university I go to, I've always hated it. Even though I was already declared a psychology major since day one, I just figured out last semester what I want to do for a career... which is become an art therapist. So now that all of my general education requirements are out of the way, I have four psych classes and five free electives left for my senior year. I'm so excited that my 21st birthday is in 35 days, this semester ends in 37 days, I move into my apartment in 38 days and I'm going to be a senior, which means I am that much closer to leaving this place! (Not that I'm counting or anything...)

Given how I'm still in the middle of my second year of university, no. Of course there's always that feeling of "damn, I wish classes were over already...", but that's only because I hate assignments and exams (who doesn't?). I still feel like I have a lot to learn, and I'm definitely not ready to enter the workforce.
