You're not too old. I'm 32. I went back to finish school at 29. I'm 2 semesters away from my BSc (graduate after fall 2012) but I'll likely have to wait until 2013 for grad school.
I plan on going to grad school for physics. Thanks for your input and the link. It was very informative.
I hope to take the Physics GRE later this year or next year.
Verbal: 440
Quantitative: 730
I registered for the exam a month ago and intended to study for it (books, vocabulary flash cards, etc), but didn't spend as much time as I intended and did horribly on verbal (quant. isn't so hot, either).

Good point, I didn't think about it like that. Thank you for your input. It will...

I initially planned on taking a summer programming course (if not, then next fall) but it seems as though I'd...
When I took Calc I, there were some high school grads in there who were eligible to take Calc II but took Calc I instead to possibly get an easy A. None of them got A's, in fact almost all of them struggled to get C's (possibly because homework wasn't collected so no one did them).
