I decided I might record this video so that I could share my university experience with you all. University is a very expensive and time consuming investment to make in ourselves, and is a decision which should be thought out very carefully. University is not for everyone and although there is a lot of pressure from teachers and parents and society to go and get a degree, I think that many more people will be reconsidering their motives for applying since the raise in fees last year. I had a very bumpy university experience, and although I happy that I went in hindsight, during some stages of the experience I genuinely regretted choosing English Literature or even staying in education. So many careers would be better achieved through getting work experience rather than attending university, so I just entreat each of you who are considering applying to not rush into anything, think things through in detail and follow your hearts.
Are any of you applying for university just because you think you should? What careers do you all want to get involved in? Tell me your university stories...

I really enjoyed listening to these and hearing your experience. I am about to go into my third year and am absolutely bricking it. I am also thinking about booking to go away travelling next summer but will miss my graduation. I am extremely torn, but hearing you don't regret missing it has helped, thank you. I sometimes wish I hadn't gone to University as I have found it a major struggle... I just hope I get a 2.1 because right now I really need to up my grades! x
I'm sure you'll do great in third year, just try your best to stay focused and keep everything in perspective... Fear of the unknown is what got me most down I think. Always wondering if I would pass or not. Just try your best to enjoy it, and I'm sure the rest will follow. I'm so sorry it took me so long to get back to you. Love GabriellaSofia x
