No career plans, no source of apprenticeships I can actually do, thus the logical course of action is run away to Scotland for 4 years and try and develop myself more as a person while doing a technically useless degree.
We'll see how that goes -

Was medically deferred from the military - planned to go to university afterwards anyway though, but my whole career trajectory has changed now from engineering to high-finance.

There's already a solution to this.
There was a guy from hp who tried to solve it, but that proof was flawed -

I feel as though either "wanted to learn more about my subject" or "wanted the opportunity to conduct research" should have been an option here...

I wanted a backup plan if my career goals fell through.
They did.
So did my degree.
