    Was wondering how many users are facing graduation this year, what they thought of their time at uni/college/school and how they performed.

    I've just received my University results via email.

    Recieved a 2.2 in BSc Applied Geography from Bournemouth University, not a fantastic result from an academic perspective but I couldn't be happier, after years of debt, stress, soggy field trips and lecturers who gave no encouragement it's nice to be rewarded with a mark which doesn't say fail or 3rd!

    Good luck to anyone still awaiting results, would be great to know how you got on.

    Graduating? Ha ha. I've got no idea when the hammer comes down on me... :p

    Well, I just need to do a few more classes & the final paper before I get my BSc in Computer Science at Leiden University, but, being fed up with CS, I'm starting my Economics major in Amsterdam next year. You won't hear me complaining though, I'm having a great time :)

    I have at least 3 more years to go for me. If everything works out ok I will get a BS in Construction Engineering.

    Still have two more years to tackle before I earn my BEng in Networking & Distributed Systems.

    After this...who knows.

    I've got a couple years left of school. I'm majoring in International Business. Hopefully I'll be studying abroad in China next Fall. My college grades have been A LOT lower than my high school grades...

    I have two years left of school, and I still have no idea what I'm doing. I'm doing okay in community college, but I'm going with the complete desperation approach by transferring to Appalachian State. If I stay in this town another year I'll likely want to kill myself.

    It's also 2:30 AM and I'm drunk :katamari:.

    Next year I'm heading to La for film school. I tell you the biggest bitch about collage is getting the money for it.

    My advice for IT or Engineering is go on a work placement for a year or take an Intern position. Without experience it is VERY hard to get your foot in the door.

    Exactly! I didn't do that and that's why I'm squatting on two Associate Degrees (CIS Microcomp. Spec. and Network Spec.).

    That's true. I started as a intern, then the same company gave me a job position.

    I'm working there for 3 and a half years (1 year of intern)
