Is 23 Too Late In Continuing Your Programme (course)?

[RossE]

I want to say that you don't need to go to university. In fact, if you do, you will learn a lot of useless things. I only graduated a month ago, I did very well in my degree grades-wise, but now I realise it was all a bit of a sham, and that I won't use a lot of the knowledge ever, ever again.

Study on your own: read books, do courses, go to seminars, get experience in the field, join forums, go talk to people, go to classes etc etc etc. You will save yourself a lot of time, and money. Universities are now, in my opinion, mainly concerned with getting good university ratings and sending people onto corporate jobs - the real meaning of university is being lost. If you want to be part of something deeper and more meaningful, go solo.
