Interrupting due to Covid-19

Anyone else thinking of interrupting their studies due to Covid-19?

I don't do well with online learning and it's a waste of the uni experience and money. I pay for societies, careers fairs, etc but with Covid 19 this is pretty not even the same thing and I don't think it's worth me spending £9250 on..
This is something I thought long and hard about. Is there anything in particular you’d like to achieve in this next year outside of university? This might be the perfect opportunity. However, how will it affect you that all of your friends will move on and leave you essentially behind? In the end I decided to continue with my studies as the current climate is such a state it worries me what might happen if I don’t.

You can make friends at any time + I really can't concentrate if it was online lectures so it's not worth it to me imo

and also the friends I currently have are super anti-social so idk if it's even a loss if they 'move on'

Sounds like you’ve made your decision! There’s were the only things that stopped me deferring. Good luck in all that you do

I was thinking of doing tutoring but I honestly don't know ATM. I'm going to look for some internships in finance or such
