No kidding, OPT-F1 Urgent4help

I finished bachelor in July, 2004 and thereafter worked with an OPT started in September 30,2004. My opt will be expired in September 29,2005. I am taking MBA classs since June 2005 in another school which is different from the school which recommend my OPT in 2004.
Right now It is back to school season and I will have to have my OPT transferred to F1 and apply for a complete new I-20 in my current school.
When I visited INS website, as it quote
"In the case of a student authorized to engage in post-completion optional practical training (OPT), the student must be able to resume classes within 5 months of transferring out of the current school that recommended OPT or the date the OPT authorization ends, whichever is earlier."
I am scared to death. Does this mean that I have to go back to school while before 5 of 12 months of OPT was due. This law is kind of absurd. So am I out of status right now?
Thank you for you guys'advise and help.
Appreciated
