What made you go into further education?

[Jarkie]

Do you currently attend college or University?

A lot of us has taken the next level of education and either gone into College and/or University and I am curious on what has kept you in Education?



For me it was something I thought I was kinda good at? I wasn't good at much else at the time of deciding of going into further education, and IMO a lot of it was to make my mother proud. I don't have any regrets however, as University was probably the best time of my life so far.



Likewise, if you didn't go into further education, what made you not chose this path?

I went to college because it was just the next step? I knew it's what my parents wanted and at the time I guess I figured I needed it to do what I wanted in life. I don't regret it though because I made some really great memories and have lasting friendships with people.

because my original plan didn't work out and I'd been applying for colleges anyway

College and undergraduate, basically because I didn't want to go to work. Postgraduate because I wasn't enjoying life and wanted to do something I liked.

Seems to be the social norm to attend further education just to transition into adulthood lol.

I did it because I thought I knew what I wanted to do and so I did the right course for it, but I realised very early on that I didn't want to do that, but instead of leaving, I continued for 3 years and completed the course for no reason whatsoever and then proceeded to go into a job completely irrelevant to the 3 year course I just did :)

8 guess I wasn't ready to adult yet and going to college was a way of stalling

high school teacher said I'm a genius and should go to uni, so I done it

well worth it although I screwed up the social aspect as I was socially ******ed so just sat on habbo all day instead of actually making friends.

i blame autism

It was just the normal thing to do, plus it’s recommended to get a degree to get hired as I can imagine now I’m the one doing the hiring if I didn’t have a degree I wouldn’t be hired or at least hired to do the stuff I wanted to do. Would take much longer to get to the stage I’m at now if I didn’t go to uni I imagine.

I worked 48 hour weeks as a pot wash and realised that I wanted something more from life.
