It's not bad. A bachelor's in English with a teaching certificate was considered by my college to be a five-year degree. (I finished it in four plus a couple summer schools.) It looks as though English is your second language. If one's studying in a non-native language, I know that it's more difficult to read and understand--even when the second language is well-understood when spoken. If it takes five years, it's fine. Some people need extra time because they are working, and so cannot carry a full load of credits. There may be other reasons a degree takes longer than the usual time. My daughter has suffered from health problems for a long while. She is in her junior year of college at age 31.

I started college in the fall of 1997, I just recieved my bachelors degree in December 2006. '03-'08 doesn't sound that bad to me.

No, there may be many reasons that it is taking 5 years. It is only "suggested" that you take four years.
