    Good for the people who are psyched about getting out of school. Really. It seems positively frightening to me and like a huge step. I'm relieved I still have a few years of grad school after this; I'm not ready to be an entirely self-sufficient adult yet. Any way you put it, school > full time work, I think. D:

    Yes. And both at the same time is BS.

    No no no!

    Work > School

    The only reason I'm ready to get out of school is because I know what I want to do, I've tried doing it in conjunction with school, but school is holding me back.

    There's so much to do! So much to get done. Gotta get out of school and get workin'.

    I'll be in my last year of my Economics degree at University of Leicester, although I dunno if I'll stay on to do a Masters. Depends on if I feel ready for the big ol' world of work.

    As long as I get the necessary grades, I'll be starting a Politics course at Bristol University. I'm not all that enthusiastic about it, and I'm only really going along with it because I've got no idea what I'd do otherwise. I'm sure it'll be fun though, and if nothing else it'll be an interesting change of pace from living at home.

    I skipped college and made a huge mistake. I'm not sure about anything right now.

    I'm going to a British University to study Geology. I don't know why I chose Geology, I am no good at it, but it should be fun to live more independently than I do right now.

    Seriously, college is the best 4 year (3 year, 2 year, 1 year) party. Don't forget to have fun or you'll end up like my brother!
    Fun isn't fun.

    I did more work last year than I did in my first 5 years of secondary. If you're not one of those naturally gifted people then you have to work like a dog (imo)

    It'll be my second (And last) year at college, and if I have advice, it's TAKE ADVANTAGE of the liberties they give you. College is so much fun, yet so very short. Also, if you are going to a laid-back predominantly Italian college, just wear trackpants.
