    So let me get this right?

    The only reason you “did it” was to make yourself feel better?

    You can call me “old school”, but I feel it would have been cheaper if you had just seen your “JP” and got some nice pills to make yourself feel better.

    I think your just part of the group of morons who feel that having a degree would make you and your life better?

    The reason you’re not happy or live in a nice house is that you need a degree?

    Face it; most of the 21 year old are laughing here heads off at you and with good reason.

    After all it’s not like you intend to find a job or get a career.

    Yet again the tax payer has been force to sub some single parent and her life style choices.

    Has for the rest of you, full time education should stop at 21, not 41.

    Any of you who feel that they need a 3 year rest at a 3rd rate school too, remember this most employers will not read your “CV’s” for the simple reason, you are too old and have no work history.

    even the longest journey begins with one small step

    she has a big advantage on younger applicants
    she has life experience i wouldnt look at where she got the degree
    i’m sure not many employers give a sh it barring oxford/cambridge
    geography dictates where any mature student does further education
    i personally applaud anyone that wants further development
    the fact she is a mother of two lovely kids makes it even more commendable it sets a good example for them
    education should be a right for anyone born on these isles irrespective of age
    better than housing future terrorists
    good for you GB and fu’ ck the begrudgers
    envy makes people cry

    well done… so what did you do?

    sorry… way too much to read through.. but concrats anyway :)

    So let me get this right.

    We are now paying for “anyone” to attend university, regardless of merit or academic ability?

    So I have been wrong all these years?

    I always thought the whole point of a university education was that young people would gain skills and a good base for business, law or medical training.

    Now it seems anyone can go and they do.

    Which only reinforces my belief that education standards are now worthless and pointless.

    Has a employer I must say, that anyone who has no work history is unemployable.

    Anyone from a council house with kids, over 30 and a single parent is unemployable.

    Anyone from a 3rd rate university and a trivial past mark is unemployable.

    Awww does that sound unfair?

    Remember we don’t have to be fair, at a job interview we have an employee profile, if you don’t match it, we don’t have to see you.

    Maybe “geordiebird” can explain what she is going to do with her degree and why the taxpayer has just spent £30,000 per year educating her?

    you’re grasping at straws now to get on my nerves.

    Just reading Doa’s replies makes one wonder whether he went to a 3rd rate school, as his grasp of the english language is something a 10 year old would laugh at.

    As an employer not only should you look at a persons credentials, but also life experiance, how they present themselves, and a willingness to do the job in question.

    Any mother at the age of 30+ has gained experiance managing finances, basic first aid, counselling skills, being on call 24 hours a day with little or no sleep and the ability to converse with people of all ages and walks of life. Whereas someone who has just left uni at the age of 21 will have barely grasped the basic requirements of getting up in the morning.

    I say well done geordie, a 2:2 isnt to be sneezed at. :)

    You’re grasping at straws now to get on my nerves.

    Hmmmm get use to it!!!!

    For the rest of your life you will have people like me judging you.

    Has for my English, well I did do a B eng in Engineering, I did have to work full time while doing it, and my university did make sure I had A level maths and physic’s

    At the time they would not let you into university without them.

    The HNC in mechanic and electrical engineering I had at the time was not enough.

    How can people say they have the same degree level as me?

    So when these damn people say they have the same level of education has me after pasting a few college courses, I do take notice of them.

    The universities have gone from a place of learning, to a place of business.

    It’s simply a case of get them in, lower the pasts marks and push them out the door.

    And the funny thing is that “geordbird” can’t see it.
