I would just like to start a discussion here, to see if people agree/disagree and generally understand other people's points of views. I am currently finishing my 3rd year of university studying Maths. As I am coming to an end I personally can say wow university is so pointless. I am just speaking from my own personal experience here, first of all I never attend lectures because they are pointless and I learn better on my own, even during my A-levels , I never understood anything in class, but then I would go through it alone and find that it is actually pretty easy. Same thing when I go to lectures, nothing makes any ****ing sense , until I actually go through it. I've attended lectures , where the lecturer has worked at pretty prestigious universities , and guess what? they are rubbish too ! I can only really speak for my course, but that **** is worthless, I picked it because I really enjoyed studying for at it during my A levels. Then I get to a point now and think when will I ever use this ********. After attending university , I have come to the conclusion that university is only worth IT for doctors, lawyers, engineers and whatever other profession you actually need a degree to do. In my opinion the only use of my degree is that it allows me to apply for better jobs , since good jobs (or jobs that I feel are "good") always specify "minimum 2:1 degree " . So it opens doors in that sense, however I have learnt absolutely ****ing nothing. Also , to the others that study maths, that ******** about 'oh it helps you have a logical way of thinking' , I've possessed that logical approach when I studied for A-level maths, didn't need a degree for it. Again this is just my opinion, I personally would never pay 27,000 pounds if the student loan structure was not how it is, I have not gained any real life skills like public speaking , negotiation , adapting, communication, just how to pass pointless exams . Let me know what your opinion is , what your university experience was like, even want to hear the positive ones and why . Just want to have a general discussion to gain some insight on other peoples opinions on university. Thank you.
