Have a question about my background. I would appreciate everybody's honest answers to find out if I can make this a realistic career. Here are my issues. I am 33 now, and much of this was long ago Thanks in advance for everybody's help
Smoked marijuana about 50 times over a 2 year period between ages of 18-20. Eventually got an MIP, which has been expunged (no arrest, just a class) I have not done drugs in 13 years. I have a letter from the County saying that no charge could be found under my name. Should I mention it?
Was disqualified from a university when I was 22 for bad grades, worked my way back in and earned a degree with a 3.0 GPA.
Had bad credit in my early 20's, (no bankrupcies) and now my credit is over 750.
Had 2 accidents on my record and a few moving violations between ages of 18-23. I have maintained a perfect driving record since then.
Probably bounced about 5 checks over the course of my life.
I would like to know if these things will be an issue during a background, as many of them happened more than ten years ago. I am a very different person now, and have learned many lessons. Any feedback would be much appreciated
Thanks for listening.

Kevin...I have the same answer to your question as on the other web site. Check it. The main crux to your question......be honest and do not lie.
