Pros and cons of being a mature student?
(edited 11 months ago)
Pros:
-You're more likely to choose a course with a particular career in mind, not just picking a random one for the sake of going to uni for the social life and to please your parents

-You're more likely to have a sensible attitude towards your work ethic, rather than a social mindset, so you may get better marks as you'll focus better and procrastinate less

Cons:
-Less socialising

-You're be entering the workforce at a much older age, making it hard to compete against younger graduates
