Are you going to University?

[Shane]

Well discuss whether or not you are going to Uni.

I am undecided right now but if I do go it won't be till my early 20s. i need a good few years out of education to let my brain vegetate first.

[Tim]

yeah i agree, but only a year out. [partyin:P ]

[Chris]

I'm going after i finish College (pending my exam results, obviously) If i didnt learn for a year or so my brain would probably shut down and i'd find it hard to go back into education, its best to get it all over and done with in my opinion.

[-Snake-]

Im getting a degree at my college/hallam

Its a founation degree with a years top up at hallam to turn it into a full Bacholre of Arts Degree then im fucking off to some other country to learn some more... maybe japan or yanksvill

[~Wayne~]

Hopefully, depends if I can get through college lol

[Asi9ine]

Nope.

Just paid the entrance fee to train for an MCSE (Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer). I start in a month or so, I had to set back the date because I really fucking need a new laptop before I bother to start. This is a heap of crap. The course should last around a year, bearing in mind I will be keeping my full-time job, and only be doing the course (home-learning) for about 3-4 hours a day. If I left my job, I would be doing it for around 16-18 a day, which would end up taking much less time. Sense prevails, however. I need money.

Training is much more recommended than University with me. I hate the learning in classes thing, it always held me back.

[Wen1992]

I'm going right away

[Sponge'K'nob]

im undecided aswel. will take at least a year out first though.
wanna go abroad a few times.

[spanish]

I wanna go to Uni in the UK (better England) but... i dunno which one to choose, and I'd need a job over there...

I'm confused lol

[Shane]

Plenty of daft jobs over here for students. :P


Screw getting it all done with in one go. Been in education for like 15 years. :/ Need to mellow down. :/

[gprime]

Will be dual enrolling (taking a class at one while still in high school) at a local one next year, and then going to a proper university upon graduation.

[goingtocollege]

I'm going to college next year in 2008 after my graduation from high school in the fall?

I just won't to know what you would suspect your first day there?

[endless_hope]

Yep I'm goin to uni...Alas, I'm facing problems that everyone is facing..Dammn university fees are expensive..I mean i wanted to study in Canada and is soo expensive..Not only the states and canada but almost all the countries that are not from the 3rd world..

so if anyone here..willing to help me find an afforadble university..Holla plz
^,^

[Malcolm]

I want to go to a college/uni that focuses on drama :)

[Kate]

Well, I don't really have a choice when I go, but i'm definately going to Uni. Hopefully Manchester, doing the 5 year Medicine degree. If I go straight after college, i'll have completed my degree and be in work by the time im 23/24.

[nyx]

I went straight after sixth form, I'd have loved a gap year, but I would never have got back into learning if I had. It's hard enough to get back into it after the impossibly long summers.

Hopefully I'll get a chance to travel once I'm out the otherside.

[Kate]

Meh, I don't want a gap year, i've already travelled ze world, so there's no point in me having a gap year, it would just mean i'd get out of uni one year later.

[Shakedown]

Pssh im at Uni curently, doing my first year in Social Anthropology/Archaeology.
Considering your first year counts for nothing towards your degree in most institutions you can afford to really mellow down like. Its nothing like the work load you have at A-level, even if you do choose to do the additional recommended research.
What are any of you planning to study?

[nyx]

I disagree, although I guess it depends on what you study. I do history, granted the first year didn't count, but I still had to do a fair bit of work. Its not all the time like A Level but around deadline/exam time, theres so much to do.

I'm in second year now, and the workload is insane. I think thats partly though cos you do more other things at uni, like go out more, sports etc, and you are always around your friends, so work gets crammed into a smaller amount of time.

[YourNightmare]

I'm in university. Taking biology, calculus, physics, chemistry and english.

[-Luke-]

You're taking 5 subjects at University?
:/

[Glamour_Love]

I'm not planning on going but if needs must to get into a career I want then I will. I don't really have much faith in the whole uni thing anymore, anyone can go nowadays, it's nothing special and it certainly doesn't make you stand out from the crowd. I'm a hard grafter so I'd much rather get to where I want to be by working my way up the career with good old fashioned hard work.

[Shane]

You're taking 5 subjects at University?
:/
I'm a bit muffled by that too. Stress much?! :S

[ficti0n]

In some countries university is like college so 5 subjects for college isnt so bad.

[-Luke-]

Ahhh....
I see.
Well certainly puts my joint subject to shame... :P

[VraiCanon]

YEAH! I am going in September. WOOO!
I'm going to study French & TEFL. Can't wait :D

[TeenageDirtbag]

I want to, to study photography and journalism.

[michelle]

[GemmaJamPot]

Ficti0n... manc or met?

[Nammy]

I will go as soon as I can but I have not decided on what to study yet.

[River]

Once I've done my A-Levels
Hopefully I'll go :)
I wanna do Medicine; then work for a few years as a Doctor
then go back and train as a Forensic Pathologist
It's something like 6 years for the medicine degree and another 2 for the pathology one
Hopefully....

[-Luke-]

I was going to do forensic pathology, but there was this really annoying girl who fancied me that was going to be in my classes, so i thought 'Hell no!' and changed all my A-level subjects, lol.

[River]

Aha :/

What A-Levels did you do instead?
x

[-Luke-]

English Language, Psychology, Sociology, Geography and Further Maths :) Gotta love maths, lol.

[River]

Oooooh :D


I hate maths aha :/
But respect to you at doing it :)

I'm doing Psychology, Chemistry, Biology & Photography


Ooooh & good luck for everything for next year :)
Psychology :) xx

[[B]]

Im going to Pylytechnic Uni :D

[kiahrose31]

well i'm currently in year 10, which in aus is like 2 years from the end of high school. and i have no clue what to do with the rest of my life, like most other people in my grade. all i know is i'm finishing school in year 12 and traveling. then i'll come back and decide. far too many people that live in this area get stuck here and never see the world.

[eukaryote]

I'm going to a community college first for two years, and then a university for the last two years.

[Krisik]

I'm going to finish school about 2 or 4 years then army and then it'd be possible to think about university

[Nintendus]

I would like to go to study theology.

[TinksX]

Definately want to go to college!!

[d2n]

I want to go, I am so excited. I still have a year in high school

[TinksX]

I'm 16 now yay!

[ficti0n]

I used to be rate up for uni, but I'm having so much fun this holiday I'm not sure if I can be bothered anymore. I'll see what my results are like in August and if there not good enough to get into the unis I've applied to I wont be that upset at all.

[GemmaJamPot]

Yeah im feeling that. I kinda dont know if I want to go or not atm tbh... And if im still feeling indecisive in August, I just wont go... coz I dont wana spend THAT much on going if im gonna regret it. I will go eventually, just dunno if I will this year.

X

[jellybean]

Yea, one more year of high school, then I'm going to university. I know what I want to take, the issue now is where exactly I want to go lol.

[Tami]

i will go as soon as i finish a course :)

[beckykinsx]

yeahh I definetly want to go to uni (not till another 2 years though) Im just undecided on what course to take, and whether to stay at home or go away. :)

[saxophonic]

for me I',m already in college got 2 more years until I transfer to Univ for my BA in teaching :D
