I'm considering going back to further my education. I started a Masters degree a few years ago but due to low self esteem confidence, I packed it in after a few weeks.

I really feel like a need to do something as I have been in the same type of job for the last 7 years and I don't want to really be there in another 7. I am considering OU and was wondering if anyone had any experience of studying with OU. I think it would also help focus my attention away from the ttc obsessive thinking.

The only thing wrong with Open Learning is that you have to be very dedicated and strict with yourself. Most people that I know that have studied at home, usually put it off and never finished the course. Whereas going to a class room environment forces you to finish. Sorta like buying a home gym vs. going to one..LOL!

I would love to do one, but arnt they expensive?? tbh never really looked into it, Iv just always thought they were expensive and no funding available to help.
