i went to University in Sydney in the late 80's and it was way more
acceptable.....the faculty had to add x amount of mature students so it was easier and everyone was singing....

I am Woman

but still.....one subject was Political Science....from the business school.... and the faculty for that subject decided that no Nurse student could do better than a credit ...and despite our protest...stcuk to it.

I was older than you and went and got my high school at night and I was 55, Then I got 1 year of psychology from York Un. So, I know what a trial that is to do and I didn't have to worry about the cooking.
