Hey everyone, can you please help me what to do- I don't have and don't use anything from Google. Now for school I am asked to provide Gmail. Is there way out ? What else, maybe some other email provider is compatible with school emailing system, because now teacher must use her personal email to email me and she is not happy at all...

Usually you can just take a test to get the degree. And the person above is right that it's faster if you just study for it yourself.

lol no, not here at least.

university degrees are like 99% self studying at this point anyway so it doesn't make anything any faster if you learn the same things, you just lack an important piece of paper
