I am tired of putting so much effort into correspondence courses and getting only a couple of point out of each one.  To max out, one needs 900 points.  I'm at 429 now.  On top of doing that, I have my job and college to do and take care of my family.  I did 16 courses over two days and I averaged a total of 2.13 points from that.  Its almost not worth it sometimes.
