Thanks to both of you. This is all kinda new to me, so I'm trying to get everything sorted out. I will have to check and see what the local colleges offer and all that. We do have a CC about 45 min away from here, and also a university in Knoxville (TN). So I'll check out the options. I wish now I had paid more attention to chemistry in school, i HATED that subject, and never did any good with it. Thanks again for the replys and if you have any further info that may help me, post away!
