I have the biggest feeling of deja vu ever (like, from the last 2 hours) upon reading this thread.
Allow me to quote uteki without the fancy quote.
Yeah and it's a shame that people are also going to University just for the sake of it.
I actually agree with going to University just for the sake of going to University. It does not actually teach you anything remarkable; it does not limit or define your careers.
What the university is actually good for is to show that you are able to take a challenge on many levels: economic, bureaucratic, social, and whatever comes at you. I've found university to be utterly boring, frustrating, and not motivating at all.
Yet, what pikka says is true:
e got a job thanks to his degree as the other applicant didn't have one.
The only reason I have managed to get the position I cover now is due to the fact that I have a degree.
A degree in Japanese culture, history, literature, and language, allowed me to secure a position as a translator/localization QA analyst.
Not because of the instruction, not because of what I had learned, but because the degree allowed me to obtain a visa easily.
Quite frankly, considering how hard it is to pull through college or university, I would only recommend going if you have a goal, if you are motivated, if there's something this course will help you achieve.
It's stressful, it's hard, and the desire to just drop and quit is sadly always present. More or less.
At the same time, this is the same reason as to why I'm amazed at what some people manage to achieve. Tilly, for instance. There are some who always have very high scores, who do things on time, who seem to have things already figured out. I'm envious, truly.
It's not just the scores; it's the capacity to deal with all the problems, all the hassles, and be successful at what you do.
The course may not define what your career will be, but it's the first statement to say how well you managed during those years.
Even if you later find yourself wanting to do something else, all the achievements you collected so far are not a waste. They're the basis of what you're capable of, a reference for what you'll be able to do later.
Tilly, there are so many in this world who haven't managed to do half of what you've done. You should be proud of what you became, and be glad that you're finding out more about your true desires. Once you clear the first stages, you'll have proof that you are capable of doing anything you truly desire.
It may not be your vocation, it may not be what you were born for, but you have nothing to be ashamed of. You're so young, too!
When I was your age, I was a disgusting blob who didn't have a clue about life. I hadn't achieved anything. I wish I had your strength, your force of will, instead of just dropping out and wasting years doing nothing.
Edit: just wanted to say I forgot what point I was trying to make.
