How do you get a 2:1 when you can't even spell? No wonder degrees are toilet these days.

Degrees are toilet? Speak English boy!

I'm allowed to be a thicko, I didn't even finish school

 

[Una]

Got mine yesterday, 1st class Computer Science. Job lined up doing IT security stuff starting in sept.

Congrats everyone \o/

I just don't like people who are lazy with english. It's just always struck me as a way to really let yourself down.

Should "english" not be capitalised?

 

[PardonTheWait]

Should "english" not be capitalised?

Yep. I didn't just get a degree though, I'm a high school dropout who works in a shop, so I'm allowed.

Reminds me of a joke I read somewhere...

Guy goes to a college for some work, and needs the library. So he asks someone close by, "Can you please tell me where the library is at?", to which he receives the response, "We must not end our sentences with a preposition"
In response, he answers, "ok, can you please tell me where the library is at, *******"

That'll be why you're trolling in the graduates thread then...

2:1 BSc Hons Computing

 

[[TW]Fox]

I'm probably just bitter

Quite. I don't see many of these people telling you they've just got an English degree, so expecting literacy experts is a tad much.

 

[PrOdiGy1]

2.1 BSc Hons Computing for Business

totally gobsmacked

 

[neocon]

well done all

wonder how easy it is going to be find jobs in this current climate?

IT degrees used to be a route to wealth. now there are millions of indians with IT degrees who will work for 20% of your salary, so its harder.

it's certainly bad in banking, they are constant trying to reduce overheads by outsourcing

 

[Going to Cali]

I got mine yesterday, 2.1 BSc Hons Computing Science from Aston.

Really pleased, was expecting a 2.2 at best, makes the late nights so worth while!

 

[Wicksta]

Quite. I don't see many of these people telling you they've just got an English degree, so expecting literacy experts is a tad much.

Have we really got to the level where primary school English is now only to be expected from literacy experts? If I was employing somebody who went to university I'd certainly expect them to be able to spell basic English words. Sure the odd mistake is understandable but there were more than that here.

I get it, and I also happen to agree with you 100%.
