Do you wish you'd of tried harder in school?

[Inseriousity.]

Not school, no, but I wish I'd tried harder in college. Like Shaz, I don't need to revise to pass anything and do well but I could've done better if I worked a little harder. I got a first in uni but some graduate jobs want a degree and 300 UCAS points and I'm just shy of that.

I think when I was in school I had a healthy balance of kicking footballs stupidly hard at small goal keepers to see if they'd hit the back of the net and keeping focused and revising. Ended up with mostly C and B grades in GCSEs, could of been worse, I did throw a year of College away doing Lvl 3 BTEC extended diploma in IT and Universal Media but I'm doing engineering now so its not all bad

I did try hard it was the ***** that made it not work for anyone unless you studded at home after school for like 7hrs a day

[Cassiieee]

Not really. I didn't really go to school since i was 12 as i ended up moving country and couldn't understand the language. I still managed to get myself into college and get my qualifications. So, i find you don't really need school to get where you want to be in life. We always tend to do things differently if we are offered a second chance. I would do everything the same.

Teachers said I'll regret not trying hard at school when I reach 21... 100% true.

[Shar]

I'm quite happy where I'm at atm so I don't have much regret about how I did at school.

[karter]

academically no. socially yea

[welshcake]

In some subjects I do.

[-:Undertaker:-]

I do and I don't. But a lot of what I have learnt has been self taught general knowledge and it often comes in useful with the subjects I am doing much more than my subjects at school have come in handy, so yeah I would rather take what I learnt rather than what I did at school.

You have a degree (a 1st) yet they still count Ucas points? That's absurd.
