Depends what you're applying for... No matter how much revision you do for a Media (or whatever) degree, its probably not gonna get you anywhere
Questionable...
My flatmate is studying Film, Television and Media. He hasn't even finished his degree yet and the job offers he's already receiving, and the wages those jobs are offering, make me wish i was studying the same thing! he's already made pretty much an average years wages in the last couple of months working on a film. and the offers he's gotten from that are worth stupid amounts of money! i mean it's tough work, he barely sleeps, but still!
i study Architecture at a decent uni, will that secure me a job? who knows, i'm certainly not as sorted as my media studying friend! -

Re: If you don't revise you'll end up..I used to watch Jeremy Kyle.(Original post by Ra Ra Ra)
I know this sounds horrible, but I actually printed off a picture of London Met and put it on my wall, so everytime I look at it I have this sudden urge to revise.
I'm an awful, awful person

Re: If you don't revise you'll end up..I agree. Revising doesn't even guarantee you'll get all good grades. I should know(Original post by Pawsies)
Revising doesn't guarantee you won't end up at ASDA in this climate.
Back to procrastinating I go

Re: If you don't revise you'll end up..Wth, you guys are so ignorant. Instead of thinking about the things that you want to be, you think of the things you don't want to be whilst disrespecting others. What snobs! You're knocking the confidence of people in these job roles or at these universities, and they may not think of it badly, until you make them question their situation.
Not everyone has an easy road too. They may be smarter but could have ended up in a university or job that doesn't reflect the potential they have.
I really thought this thread was for showing where you want to be. But instead, there's dramatic, rude people, who think not having a levels will make the world end.Last edited by sb123303; 08-04-2012 at 21:57. -

Re: If you don't revise you'll end up..Have you ever actually been there? Agreed, it's not the most aesthetically pleasing(Original post by Ra Ra Ra)
Not really, given that I have little to no idea of where I want to go.
I know it's not my ONLY alternative. It is however, one of the bleakest, most depressing, horrific looking universities I have ever seen:
But I know someone who did an undergraduate at London Met and then went on to Oxford for her postgraduate. It's what you make of it.
Spoiler:Show
I wouldn't apply there, but I think London Met's reputation as a terrible place is - as is the case for most stigmas - exaggerated. Completely biased since I was basically brought up in the Chemistry labs on the 13th floor. There are photos of a 2 year old me surrounded by cluttered conical flasks and Organic Chemistry books
I can remember being a about 4, with age old moly-mods (polystyrene configurations of hydrogen/oxygen etc attached to sticks) and pretending I was a dalek and running up and down the corridors and going up and down in the lifts and probably annoying the hell out of students and staff.
Thought it was wonderful, personally
