Did my A levels and did very well.

Went to uni for 12 months... ditched it and never looked back.

Best thing I ever did.


What are A levels?

They're a bridge between High School and University I guess. A level results will usually determine what courses you can take at Uni.

college, and hell yea i'd go back and not take Drafting, and take business management instead, like i'd planed to do in the first place. never listen to anyone but yourself when it comes to your education cause once you've gone through and graduated, it's hard to get things set up so you can go back.

 


@bolded, i agree completely. i have a friend who  is smart as fuck, could have been what ever he wanted to be. one of his older friends kept talking nonsense to him and now he is studying something shitty, in a shitty university. the guy could have been so much more

i'm srry you have to watch that. it's so upsetting.

 

@ kowenicki some people are just to smart for college. i get that all the time but, i have to say you didn't need it. that personal opinion.

Graduated college with a degree that I have yet to use with ~18k in federal student loan debt. I view my BS degree as a bullshit degree.

Currently finishing my M.S. degree (Analytical Biochemistry). I'm trying to figure out what to do with my life after that. Since I hate being where I am, I'm currently looking at Ph.D. programs abroad.

Currently attending a University.

I'm currently in 9th Grade. Some of my classes are AP, some are Honors, and some are basic. That means that I have (or are taking) a College education in History and Human Geography. I have a 10th-11th grade education in English/Literature. And I have a 9th grade education in Biology/Algebra. (I should be in Honors Algebra and Honors Biology but my Middle school screwed everything up for me (in 8th grade) and put me into Basic Biology and Advanced Algebra, which I already learned in 7th grade.)

They are what you need in the UK to get into university (unless you a a mature student)

So for instance to would probably need 4 A levels at grade A or A* to get into medical school. 


Oh we don't have them here. So why did you ditch uni? You started your own business?

University Physics. Seriously regret taking it at the best university in the country. Do not take a STEM degree unless you actually enjoy solving problems that are harder than what you feel capable of doing. If I could choose again it would be at a less formal, private-school dominated, complacent university.

Really? Ouch. I thought they only asked for 3 A levels.
