It’s a good program, a lot of people don’t finish it but that is okay. GT has a great reputation but they definitely don’t hand out degrees. I think it’s a solid choice.

How much to include in your resume?? So I’m 44 y/o and have been actively working with no “gaps” since I was 18. My resume is packed but I feel it may be too much and it feels dated. I want to freshen it up as I’m considering a change. Should I go back 10yrs and leave it at that? Should I simplify the resume? It’s a fine line between easier to read and watered down. Thanks your input!!
