I'm a relatively new member of BOTA slowly working my way through the correspondence courses, but I have a few questions about where things are headed.
1) Has anyone ever actually finished all of the lessons?
2) If so, how long did it take?
3) Do you "graduate" at some point? Does someone mail you a completion certificate and send you on your way?
4) Are there any tips or advice you wish you'd known going in that might be helpful?
I know it will be slow going and that there'll be repetition of material I already know, but I'm actually looking forward to that as it will improve my study and comprehension. I take each lesson slowly and seriously, even if it's a review. I just find it motivational to have an "endgame" in mind - a goal for which to strive, if you will, to supplement my already strong desire simply to learn more.
