Home >> Advice >> going back to school?
01.01.2011, 17:23 quote
I went back to study at 25, I'd re-written my matric (equivalent to your O or A levels I think) so that I could get into Medicine. Then a genetics professor suggested that I study something else that didn't require quite as much energy - so I chose Chemistry instead.
I was really pleased that I'd gone back to study and I did really well, got offered bursaries to carry on with my studies by 4 different companies - chose one that paid me a salary even while I was studying - how cool was that!
When I first went to study at uni straight after school, I majored in Partying, if they'd given marks for it, I'd have got an upper 1st - but sadly the rest of my marks didn't come up to standard!
I think it's better that you take a break and study when you're a bit more mature - my niece did some work and travel (gap year) before she started studying and she's doing really well at uni now.
