If you don't know what to do, DO NOT GO TO UNI!!!Seriously.Why get yourself into debt because of something you may not really have your heart in or choose to pursue after uni? I'm speaking from personal experience. Degree isn't be all and end all. You can still get on and up in a number of professions without a degree and the majority of jobs want experience alot fof the time. You could even do a qualification so at least you have practical skills and the certificate you get proves it to the employer.

Now that i've gone down a different route my heart isn't fully in uni. Silly this may be but i'm thinking how else can I become a clinical psychologist without this route. I know with law you have different routes but with Psychology I keep on hitting a brick wall. Google will be my friend I hope.

[Dubby]

Natalie... you're only just writing your personal statement now? I swear you were doing the same Psychology AS as me last year?

[Natalie]

Yh I was and just before A2 my mind was f*cked. Changed to Btec like a fool.

[Dubby]

Oh seen, fair enough. How were your AS results?

[Natalie]

f*cked lol D E E Uwould of pulled em up too, bar the U.Ahhh psych my 1st love......

[Dubby]

Oh seen, fair enough. I managed to scrape a C in my Psychology exam (B-D-E in the 3 units), but wasn't enough to bother carrying on.I did enjoy half of it though, but it was too vague a subject for me to be that in to. Too much "it may be caused by this...." "but in this case it has been shown to be caused by this....", too many theories, not enough straight-forwardness about it.

[Baroness.]

WAIT hang on, anyone going Herts, have they replied about your accom yet?I sent that ting tiiime ago now.Watch me end up homeless and broke come start of term

[Guest Lisa Turtle]

You can still send it, you will probably just be brack for the first term.In my first year of uni one of my brejs got a double loan payment in Jan because of firstly sending it late, and secondly the SLC just messing around/losing documentation.They lived off their overdraft for the first semester.

[Baroness.]

Not me. I don't know what an overdraft isOww.
