To go to University or not?

  • I went to university and even though it was an incredible experience, through working after university I have learnt far more life skills and knowledge through doing this. Therefore my advice would be depending on what you want to study I would look at your options outside of university first and see how you can benefit from working your way up through certain jobs. 

    Hope this helps.

    Life isn't just jobs and career - personally I really enjoyed my time at university, got to try and do all sorts of things as well as my (rigorous and well respected) degree.
    Do you enjoy school?  Do you have a part time job and do you enjoy that?
