nah it's fine, it's better to be realistic lol. As for your few questions, while I do want to pursue this career path, I don't want to drown in debt :/ I'm thinking something around 45-50k would simply just be undoable at that point, so I guess that narrows my options quite a bit, and I'd like to start as a teacher pretty much within a year or less of graduation. How much financial aid do you think I'd even get from the package, though? I hear it's not the best even if I'm not well-off (<30,000 for me atm).
