Elenfir Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 It's a shame to be honest. I got my degree in sweden a couple of years ago and here it's learn or get kicked out. I like that better. I would have commit Harakiri on the spot if my courses were made for the slow student to follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genaga Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I think you went to the same college and did the same course as me. My programming teacher was pathetic.I ended up quitting for the army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted March 3, 2010 Author Share Posted March 3, 2010 @Smallbro:> So college is better than sixth form? Cause I have to make my choice in like june next year.Much, much better.Sixth Form is just another couple of years of high-school with the teachers being patronising bastards and thinking they're cool because they can swear now.Any system where the same person teaches 13 and 18 year olds is stupid.Although the course at college is very, very slow for me (And a lot of other clever people who decided to learn on their own as well, obviously) it's a great laugh when you're there, and if you put your head down and get the course down you just don't need to turn up half the time.My timetable till July is me turning up for 2 and a half days a week. Soon that'll be 1 and a half days because I'll have finished the Encryption area (Which is actually interesting thanks to the tutor going out of his way to talk about advanced stuff) and the VB6 area in a couple of weeks.

Homicidal Monkey Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 This rant needs more underlying sarcasm and an arrogant, inflated speech to accompany it.Also, end it with> Fuck You,> Sincerely,> [my name] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adulese Games Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Most college life isn't even close to the stereotype. You just have more time to do more shit and more course work. If you want something like that, go to a party school. ;D- Adulese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusy Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Robin - I must say that I compleatly understand you, I spent the last 14 years putting up with that shit… first in the primary school, then in junior high, later in the high school and finaly on the unversity - I fucking droped out of it after a year. Right now I'm aplying to a school that hopefully will teach me what I want to learn and probobly the only school in my entire life where I'm not better than my "informatics" and "art" teachers, and I'm not fucking good at "informatics"... however I have to pay 750PLN (~260$ [~170 Sterlings]) a month. And that's a part-time study - fo the daily studies I would have to pay 1000PLN but I wouldn't have time to actualy earn it.…welcome to the land of pirogi and kieÅ‚basa!

Robin Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share Posted March 4, 2010 Sounds a bit expensive. In September I'll be paying ~£4,000 for the tuition fees, ~1,200 on accommodation and God knows how much on other stuff.Luckily I get shit loads of grants, bursaries and loans. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
