    A lot of managers jobs do require a degree, some don't.

    I am looking for a low stress job at first. Just being an office assistant would do me for a while.

    Have my job - would love to go back to being a student.
    I'm so boring, my clothes wanna keep someone else warm, someone cooler
  • Not exactly.

    :rolleyes: looks pretty much the same to me. I would have thought you'd be sick of the subject by now.

    No, if you can be a success in life without chasing thousands of pounds worth of degrees and higher degrees is an important one to me anyway.

  • You can be successful in life without a degree.

    Isn't it a little late to be worrying about such things now considering you're graduating soon?

    It is and it is not, I will have to compete in life with people with higher degree(Masters / PhDs) and I probably will never get a higher degree so I need to know if you can compete or not.

  • Far more direct this one is.

    you sound like yoda :rotfl:

    does a degree help you get on ... what? university challenge? mastermind?

  • Of course you can compete. As we've said over and over, employers are looking for more than just a degree from a potential employee.
