Ah, ok.
The course I did was consistently battling it out with Reading and Cambridge for the honours of best in the country. Although, it is classified as academic!!

I've not heard many people ever say that they've had a great time studying in London, although I'm sure there must be some.bigc said:

A degree does mean nothing, however when you go for a job it doesn't half help however irelevant the degree is.
It basically means in most cases you have 1) lived more than 20 minutes from your parents 2)you have succesfully survived on a fiver a week 3) you have mastered the art of getting hammered 7 days running (on a fiver)4) you have managed to get a degree despite missing 70% of all your classes 5) you have got alot out your system and are ready to face the real world.
All by the age of 23. (in most cases)......
It is simple, a large proportion of successful people have a degree, and they want to emply people with degrees........
The odd non degree employee may slip through the net on the odd occasion, good on em i say,

Where did you study?
It's not that I'm not totally enjoying it, it's alright and it's something to do, but it's not knocking me out, whereas I'd expect one of the top 10 Uni's in the country to do that.
Social life wise, looking old for my age, the whole going out seen has become second nature to me so that was really water off a ducks back. To some people(who come from dull shitholes), it's like a brand new world going off somewhere else.
To me I'm just doing what I'd do in Brighton but in London.
Does make me realise how ethnically homogenous Brighton is though!

If I were in the position to recruit and I had 2 similar candidates the only difference being one had a mickey mouse degree and the other A-levels and has been working for 3 years then chances are I'd give it to the one without degree. They've already shown me they have more common sense. Also, if they've been working for 3 years rather than studying they'd probably settle in to another work environment much easier. I don't think they would need to get anything 'out of their system'.
