Of course you do! 
Quote: Ben @ January 27 2009, 4:03 PM GMTBen wishes he'd done A-Level biology instead of starting A-Level chemistry and completely flunking out of that and the education system. I guess I can do it through Open Uni one day...
Open uni is good. I'm doing my second degree with them 
But seriously, Uni isn't for everyone. I actually wish in many ways I hadn't gone to mine.

Disagree. Even if it's a bad experience (relatively speaking), it's at least an experience you wouldn't otherwise have had. And once that window of opportuinities gone, it never comes back.
Yeah but I went for completely the wrong reasons so I never got to enjoy it. I was very unhappy there but you are right. I wouldn't have met my best friends otherwise.
Still wish I'd done something I wanted to do.

You can go to uni at any time. There were quite a few oldies when I was at uni and noone batted an eyelid. Good for them!

I agree in principle, but if you've wasted thousands of pounds on doing something you feel was a waste of time, that's kind of a bummer.
Yeah that debt always bites you on the bum.

It is bad fo sho, but we have it good really, in a lot of countries you have to borrow from a bank to fund your education - now 'that' would be a proper bummer!

I think I would quite like to be a counsellor and work with people like me who suffer from those types of conditions. Or a proper writer for news papers. Or a jewellery and homeware designer. Or a squizzel.
And theoretically if you stay in low paying jobs for the rest of your life, you never have to pay the Student Loan people back.
Or, so I hear, if you move three times they can't trace you.
But that sounds very much like wishful thinking bollards to me.
Or if you leave the country.

I think that you have to move every 6 months to keep ahead of 'them'.
Innnnnteresting.
