Call me a cynic, but I believe there are a lot of people at uni who shouldn't be there in the first place and are given false hope that they can achieve the impossible simply because of the fees that the uni get for each student. I don't blame the students, I blame the education system for not preparing them properly or giving them a good enough grounding in the subjects they want to study.Jon said:Aunty - Well, I would, but I've failed a repeat year, so they've said "No, stop wasting our time, and toddle off into the big wide world". Maybe I'll choose to do some sort of further study in the future, but for now...
I've applied to join the Greater Manchester Police Force.
It's something I've always thought i would be good at; I kept it as my backup option incase things went tits-up.
If that doesn't go to plan, well... I guess there's always an exciting career in retail!![]()
