Though ive heard after completion the monkeys are turning down the opportunity to go to uni and do a media studies degree instead opting for something more reputable like returning to the jungle to throw shit all over eachother

Uni isn't much harder tbh. The essays are ridic easy and you get like a million chances to do it if you fail. Degrees don't mean much these days, but getting out in the world and moving from home, getting life experience is priceless imo, and good value for the 20k debt you get in that you pay back in pennies.

Trying doing a science based degree, I didn't understand half of it. Sure got a million chances to retake exams as well. Though as you say the life experience and the general opportunity to get away from home and spend half your life drunk is priceless.

Any proper degree or PhD can still be hard work...quite a few degrees are complete nonsense though and so any monkey can get one.

It was 12-15 years ago, but my degree wasn't easy. Lots of classroom time and plenty of self-study. Of course, it was an easy life as outside that I spent all my time playing sport or getting drunk (or both). However, some degrees are a walk in the park. A friend of mine did sociology, and managed to do less than 6-hours of lectures a week.
A levels were a lot tougher than GCSEs though, a lot tougher.

Aye what others have said. Degree's can be from the virtually impossible to the incredibly easy.

Blatant "I'm old" post IMO.

Similarly with A Levels - even now, I don't think you can generalise over such a broad range quite so simply.

Errrr...... What?!?!?!
It's true some degree courses are stupidly easy, but there are still a lot of respectable and difficult courses out there which hold value.

dont necessarily agree with the first bit - although my degree was a little easier than i expected, but definitely agree with the second.
