  • ok i may be regretting this now.....

    wish me luck, i am BACK TO SCHOOL tomorrow, for the first time in 24 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I am entering Uni to start my degree, something i should have done when i left school, but didnt! Big Mistake!!!!

    So as i enter the classroom as a mature student, think of me, i have packed my new snazzy notepad and pencil case and i will try not to forget my apple for the teacher

    Also can i add, good luck to Piskie as I know you too are back to school soon as well x

      Congrats for being so brave. I fancied doing an evening course or suchlike but the subjects I was interested in aren't in my area so that was the end of that.
      Happy Gardening,

            I am off to study a Foundation Degree in Early Years (2 years), followed by another year to complete a BA Hons, then I have to also re-take GCSE Maths & English, in the next 3 years and then after a year of teacher training I will be putting all my knowledge into the brains of 3-5 year olds!! LOL!!

            Now i feel stressed writing that lot down, i am hoping to have as much fun as Piskie will in hers, let us know how you get on on Thursday Piskie xx

              I'm back again on Thursday as well - although I never really left as I've studied something or other pretty much since leaving college.

              It's great being a 'mature student', I love it. Much better than when you were younger.

                    I'm studying to be a gardener but unlike SS I only have to be there one day a week not full-time - can't afford full-time as I have to work.

                    You'll be fine SS - enjoy

                      Good luck to all you mature students. I did a few evening courses while I was working (Psychology, child care stuff) and then got my degree at age 34.
                      I think that's enough for me, I'm only reading for pleasure now.

                            Good luck to all mature students. I did a 2 year certificate in archaeology (about 10 years ago now) and it was hard to get back into studying. Particularly so since this involved a lot of essay writing and my degree in Geology and A levels in sciences hadn't involved anything like that. You do take it more seriously than first time round though!

                            And Snadger - you obviously know some students!

                              Good luck, girls! There's nothing wrong with studying later in life. If you'd studied straight after school without being ready for it, chances are you'd have wasted your time there.

                              Don't be too norty in Fresher's week, Squashysu! Good luck to you to, Piskie!
