The Miscellaneous Thread

Thanks for this Hayley. I found it a really interesting and inspiring read. You did awesome. Particularly the comeback from dropping out. I'd have hit rock bottom if I dropped out of uni, so to come back to such success was awesome. I imagine you'll go on to be one of those power women in business that I read about in Forbes magazine. I'll come and work for you one day.

I'm liking the community vibe here. Seems like with internationals the rival players stop fighting each other is like how TSR people stop getting into club arguments at every opportunity.

I concur.

Have we just agreed on something Jam?

Miracles do happen eh

**** uni doe. Wish I never went. Should have finished my education at 18, learned The Knowledge and become a black cab driver. Would be bringing in decent bucks right now and for the rest of my life, and can work my own hours. I think I'd prefer it that way. I'm not cut out for education and high pressure jobs.

Starting salary: 12k+ per year

srs?

You what.

I thought black cab drivers are raking it in. They're all tax dodgers but still.

Still, A-levels are piss when you compare them to uni exams. You can pass A-levels by just reading the textbook or doing past papers the week before. LP man....

12-20k based on a 40 hour week apparently. You might be thinking of train drivers, think that's a well-paid job that people don't expect to be.

Btw. Anybody knows how to voluntary cause goosebumps?

Stand in the cold with a light T on?

Na the comfortable one. When you're listening to music and feeling euphoric.

Right I see, that hedonistic feeling.

Jam btw how old are you?

The **** kind of question is that?

There's a point at the around the 1:40 mark that'll make it happen though:

Grad schemes means that you will get a good salary as long as you are able to get onto one, you should be eligible for them. Management would get you a good salary e.g. or recruitment.

Also have you considered going into law? Eco you're probably not going to get a place at uni unless you have done at least Maths AS level.

Na I'm 21.

guys, i don't know what to say.
psychology is one of those that if you put the work in, you'll do well.
but a U in A2 level in any subject whatsoever is unheard of tbh
LP yet again surprising us all

Alright guys no need to be rude about the whole psychology thing... I did AS and A2 psychology in one year in my second year of sixth form because at the start of A levels I picked English Literature, Media Studies and Gov and Politics (yes only 3 subjects I know), the G&P teacher was diagnosed with cancer and left the school and there was nobody else to teach the subject at A level standards there was only 6 of us in the class so we were given the option of either doing Sociology or Psychology to carry on in one year and thus I chose psychology. So imagine how difficult it was juggling all that in my second year alone, that's still no excuse for the grade but still. I'm still happy with my A and B.

There's really no need to be mean about it guys seriously

Yeah so your application is based on academics and a separate test everyone does called the situational judgement test. The academics is based on your decile ranking from your year, any extra undergrad degrees, and any publications you have. That's all worth 50% of your application, the SJT the other 50%. Your overall score is out of 100, so the top dogs with scores of like 85+ will more or less get their top choices and so they work down the list in order of total score allocating people to their choices based on availability. But those with higher scores get priority which is fair enough.

If your bro got into London he must have done pretty well. It's generally very competitive to get in, especially north-west thames and north-central thames.
