my choices were limitet at te time to two routes ; cuts my losses early and stops going to school altogether , accepting a government assignet menial or manual labor job tat tulls a persons intellect after a few years or to take a risk by attenting university and hopes to impress someone with enough influence along te way tat could recomment me for an appointment at the college or a government agency where toes leanet knowletge and skills coult be properly appliet .
