Mandy asks…
How much would it cost to re-learn 6 grade-11 grade math and English?
Michelle answers:
It doesn’t have to cost a lot, you can do a lot for free from the library. You should be able to find all you want either at the library or for free on-line. The hard part is disciplining yourself to study.

Looking for an active, online realistic high school role play forum?
I would like one that’s been recently active. Preferably not ‘gifted’ or fantasy or anything.
