Getting a second undergrad degree in a mostly unrelated subject

I think I may end up doing this 2-4 years from now, and I just wonder how common it is.

Also, a potentially stupid related question - how possible is it to get into a grad school in a subject you did not study in undergrad? Can you just take courses a la carte to meet the pre-reqs and/or beg them to let you give it a shot? All my research on grad school doesn't turn up much on what kind of students are accepted into the programs.

Hi everyone,

We've corrected the NMR bug that caused some users NMR counters to be too high. Since so many users were affected by this, we've wiped everyone's NMRs from games started before the 7th Feb (when the bug was fixed). You're welcome!

We will also have wiped some legitimate NMRs - so if you're one of the users who previously had lots of NMRs, think of this as a clean slate and a chance to stay on the straight and narrow, RR wise.

As usual, if you suspect that your RR is still not right, please email us at [email protected].

Assuming that there are no further bugs, stay tuned for the ability to set a RR for your games.
