<p>I wasn't sure where to post this, so I posted it here. I'm a sophomore in college and I just turned 20. Am I too old for my year? Should I be a junior? If I'm lucky, I'll be almost 23 when I get a bachelor's degree. Is that normal?</p>
<p>No, you are not “too old” for your year. “Traditional” students start at 18 and finish at 22, but there are wide variances for any number of reasons. You are certainly well within the average range of sophomores. Your age when you get your degree is really of not much importance; many people change careers and go back to college in their 30s, 40s, 50s or even older. Age is just a number!</p>
