I left school (with good grades) but for unforeseen circumstances I never got the chance to go to college/Uni. 9 years later and I have decided I want to study further.

Because I haven't thought about it for so long, still undecided what I would like to do.

Just wondering if anybody has studied Comp Science and if they enjoyed it?

Obviously I will need to do a foundation year, but I am a bit worried about the difficulty as it has been so long since I studied.
 
What have you been doing for 9 years? What A-Levels do you have? What other qualifications do you have? Why do you want to do Comp Sci?

The first answers will dictate how easy you will find it, and the last one will determine if you'll stick with it even if you find it hard going...

I have been working a few different jobs but not been really happy with them.

I have no A-Levels, just GCSEs.

No other quals.

My girlfriend's friend (that I don't know) reccommended it, I have only been thinking about studying for a week so just an idea.
 
Not really to improve wage, more to find a job I might possibly enjoy doing for the rest of my life.

But good to know, cheers.
 
No, I wouldn't jump into it without thorough thought.

Just wondered if it was enjoyable. Just using the Codecadamy now, pretty clever.

Maths excellent at GCSE level. I do quite enjoy problem solving.

I did a careers test the other day where I pretty much did certain excecises and it gave me ideas for work.

Computer science was one of them :)
