Hey Berta, I only did a semester at AMU and that was while dealing with just separating from the Army, moving my family from NY to NC and maintaining a 50+ hour a week construction job, and the Army reserves so I kind of snuck through so I could finish up and take care of all that and my pregnant wife. While attending, my professors were extremely helpful. I loved it and plan to go back soon. That is funny about your professor, he was hard on his students but that's how you breed success... great for you. It says that you are from NY as well Berta. Where about? I am from Glenville, near Albany. I also lived in Fort Drum for 6 years. Looking back at my DBQ and understanding the points that a few people have mentioned I regret not touching more on my functionality at work and even in my personal life. That is the reason I went to the VA to start tending to my issues. By the time I was finished discussing my stressors I felt complete, like I finished venting. He requested that I didn't get too in depth about my stressors after he read my stressor letter and just wanted to verify the events, I couldn't help it. I am sure I will get a good rating that fits my symptoms. I see guys on here get told that they might get 30% if they're lucky and than get 70. We will see. Thanks everyone Dennis
