Guest alex Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Ant, how is your situation applicable to someone who isn't interested in the subject? I was only telling him to do a couple of days work so 2 years hasn't gone to waste. Think about man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jusoda Kid 1 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 tbh i did somewhat the same as youwent on some 2yr course at college and ditched it after a couple of months, mainly due to the content being moronic and the teachers even more so. If you have a genuine interest in a subject you tend to be able to pickup more yourself than you can at 90% of those college courses. if ya don't give a stuff, do something you will try at instead, no point wasting your time Ant, what do think would look better on a job application a few years down the line - a two-year web design course or a two-year gap in employment because you couldn't be arsed to finish the course off? Great advice there like. Thats what i dont want stamped on my CV tbh. It's gonna look even worse than it already does Tell them that your Rickets was playing up and you could barely walk to the kitchen never mind college, they'll believe you, I can guarantee that.

NJS 3977 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 In the short term the two years/failure would be hard to explain - in the long term if you make a career of something then it will be meaningless. I've mentioned before on here that I dropped out of university but now that is meaningless. As others have said, if you can do the work I think you should.

Fucking hell I am failing everything recently If you can finish the course, go and finish it. Apathy is easy to get into, but determination to see something through is truly commendable imo. See it as a challenge, Bawan. A challenge to yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 17744 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 tbh i did somewhat the same as youwent on some 2yr course at college and ditched it after a couple of months, mainly due to the content being moronic and the teachers even more so. If you have a genuine interest in a subject you tend to be able to pickup more yourself than you can at 90% of those college courses. if ya don't give a stuff, do something you will try at instead, no point wasting your time Pity you didn't finish a course in English language. I wouldn't normally be so petty, but a complete lack of punctuation makes your posts hard to read and gives less credibility to your advice imo. And it is terrible advice, as it always is from people who dropped out and became a success anyway. People who can't tell the difference between personal anecdote and common sense. Ask yourself this - would it have done you any harm to finish your original course, especially if it only required two days hard work? And do you acknowledge not completing courses doesn't work out well for everyone? For every smug person who congratulates themselves for doing well for themselves for succeeding despite dropping out of college, how many people end up with major regrets, some possibly having significantly fucked up their careers as a result? More than one, I'd wager. Sorry if that sounds harsh but I feel quite strongly about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 34394 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Handwriting so bad they couldn't mark your paper. Fucking quality. And as much as you think an inability to construct and punctuate sentences on a message board is unimportant, it's actually quite a similar thing to your handwriting issue. I've told you in the past that your posts are a chore to read. Now Renton has told you similar. Renton may be a fat Gordon Ramsay-alike but when he's agreeing with me on something you can bet he's right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isegrim 8870 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Bad handwriting? Maybe Ant is Kieron Dyer and that is why Renton is getting so wound up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
