I doubt it. Most start at 18 maybe, however by the end of that they're all 19. Which leaves 2nd year, 3rd year, abroad/placement year, masters, PhD, etc... not including mature students, foundation years etc.
TBH this is a nice forum. I hope to still be here occasionally when I leave uni.

No, I meant most of the users on this site are under 19. Sorry, should have made it clearer.

Hey - I am 57 - I went on here because I have kids who are at uni. My daughter is doing a PhD and my son is just about to start an MSc.
There are a lot of folks who need advice from us oldies!

Come to think of it 25 does seem too old enough. Clearly, I've risen beyond the limits of a mere student and into the realm of the grown ups.
A realm alien to most of you lot.

Paedophile! Some of us are 13-17, I would suggest you leave the forum before the police find out.

I suppose I could help people out in the finance subforum but for some reason I feel like this site doesn't deserve my generosity. Nice to see you though!
If i may what are you going to pursue?

We need wisdom on TSR so older students contribute more than most.

Or you could compare the sheer amount of GCSE and A-Level threads compared to University threads?

And you've looked in every single university sub-forum to do that?
In every single subject area forum?
In all the careers and jobs forums?
No point digging, you already look foolish.

Agh - something in Geography or History. My original BSc is Geography but I love the history of London and British Cities. But my background is oncology so I don't know maybe health but on the other hand I am 2 years away from a bus pass.... And do I NOT feel like that. Pierced nose, Doc Martens - quirky hair, daughter who keeps asking where I am....

A- *******s
B- even if it were true that in itself proves nothing.
TSR does not collect data on age. To say most users are 14-19 is nothing short of a gross generalisation with no evidence to back it up.
The average user is far more likely to be in the 17-22 bracket.

I'm fine then - I can use this site for another 10 years

Achmed, you've abandoned your other argument regarding "Londonistan"
