im fine with it though man, i dont really feel uni was 'for me' - its been fun and met alot of sick people and its been the best few years, but career wise i dont think it was for me

i get shit done when i have to, and im under pressure. at uni its just too easy to fuck about and live easily of loans. when i leave my parents won't help me at all and they've already said i only got like 6-12 months that i can live with them after i finish (hopefully i wont even have to go back for a week)

out of my group of friends the 2 most successful never went uni and just started their own business... so its not like you have to go uni to do well

i think im more destined for that sort of route. can't really picture me working a serious 9-5 anyway

[rockonin]

What if you regret not finishing uni further down the line?

[ezza]

im gonna finish, jus too late to get a 2:1 now

i think

[rockonin]

I got a 2:1, was 5% of 1st, the jobsworth exam board.

[ezza]

5% is quite alot lol... its half a grade

[rockonin]

5% aint a lot, they should of looked in their tnuc hearts and gave me the first just for having the best first name.

Actually on one of my modules I got a distinction from the lecturer, but then when it got sent to be marked by the external examiners they downgraded it to a merit. That probably cost me my 1st.

[nitz]

65% is way off from a first. My sister got 69.4% and they didn't round it up to a first.

Thats even harsher. They must have quotas on how many 1st' they can give out

[wub]

you don't want a 2:2/3rd man, for one even if you don't feel your course you've slightly wasted 4 years by not finishing it properly, it'll be bad for your cv too

Nothing wrong with a 2:2, trust.

[ehbes]

how do these 2:2 and 2:1 translate into the american grading system

[wub]

how do these 2:2 and 2:1 translate into the american grading system

They don't exactly. It's to do with your % grading;

>70% = 1st
60-70% = 2:1
60-50% = 2:2
<50% = 3rd

[ehbes]

ah ok

[titchbit]

Nothing,

[ezza]

yeah if u dont do md all the time the recoveries real fast

i never even use to get a comedown until it became like a weekly thing, and then after a few months it started to really affect me

+ if u do feel well shit the next few days just go by some multivitamins and 5htp

[titchbit]

Nothing,

[ultraspatial]

not gonna get a 5 day comedown hungover combo
like agent said, it's a problem only if you're a regular user. even hungovers aren't that bad unless you drink daily or smth

[titchbit]

Aaaaaaaand nothing

[ezza]

i wouldnt worry
