How easy would it be for me to start studying again?

Or is it still worth it?  I'm 27 now. Will I be good?

I don't feel like doing this as much as let's say earlier this year. But I still would think, that it's better than not (doing it). What do you think? Am I still capable of doing it at this age? Or will my ability be different now than what it used to be? 

I don't know. And if I start studying, should I go for oversea? Or local university? This is not considering the cost. Idk.. I hv no idea about the process. It was easier when I finished hs. The path is already laid before us.

Of course it's still worth it. This year I finished a degree in sustainable use and management of the environment. 4 people in my class graduated beetween the ages of 30-35 and one person was 40. No probs.

Loads of people educate themselves later in life, you shouldn't worry about that. Besides, 27 is still young. Sure there's a difference in ability to learn compared to your early 20s, but so what? You're not suddenly dumb, you are still very smart and capable of learning. In fact, if you really want to learn then there's not much that can stop you. What you should focus on is whether you really want to educate yourself or not, especially through academia. Once you enroll, be sure you'll complete it.

I started studying at 26 and don't regret it. But think hard before you do it. It's not easy when you come from a blue-collar job. You have to give up a lot of things that other people your age have. Only do it if it is really necessary for your desired career.
