I don't hate universities per se, I just hate credentialism, the endless debates around university, the way it is funded, the way that anyone who isn't tenured is treated, lectures in general, etc etc etc etc

Did I ever tell you how me and a few mates were messing around and swearing a lot and an old woman came over (not staff) and was like "YOUNG MEN STOP SWEARING HAVE SOME RESPECT, THIS IS A RUSSELL GROUP UNIVERSITY"

Tbh all the mature students that were on my course worked about 2x harder than any of the kids just out of school. Probably they all chose to be there stop their jobs etc etc I actually mostly stuck around with the older people by chance. ...

Went to the pub with a guy I thought was my age in Freshers week, all his friends were clearly older than me. I was like oh so is this the mature students society and like people there were 23-30. Most of them good friends now.

I think my older students were uniformly pretty hard working, above maybe 90% of the younger student body

In my masters degree class, the students who had worked for a few years after their bachelors degree did so much better than the ones who did their MSc immediately after (like me
). I would definitely find it much easier now if I were to another degree.1 reply 0 retweets 3 likes -

yeah it's weird I learn stuff really fast now, much more quickly than I did as an undergraduate something to be said for crystalized intelligence vs fluid I guess? maybe extra context for whatever else you're trying to pick up?
