Hi guys.
My question is, why so many people in the Uk have a degree?
Almost 49% of the population, while in Italy, where I live, just 18%.

Because Tony Blair.
The real question should be 'how many graduates does the country need?'

Over-promotion of academia and university being the be all and end all. Along with poor advertising of other routes of education and job routes such as apprenticeships, which has resulted in a perception of anything but a degree being a failure or less than.

È previsto per noi. E il governo metti molta enfasi all'universita circa dieci anni fa.

Compared to Italy, it's a growing country.

Trade and apprenticeship routes are looked down on and not promoted. They're also routinely abused, see Subways "sandwich artist" apprenticeship.

What a comment, took the words out of my mouth. I'd be interested to know whether you plan on going/go/went to university. My bet is that you aren't/don't/don't?

It's good, but it means there are too many graduates and not enough jobs, too...

I wasn't sure if it'd be easier for you if I spoke Italian, haha.

Maybe you should consider why it is so low in Italy.
