Did you enjoy your time at uni?

I mostly enjoyed it and I'm very glad I went. A lot of work, but a lot of partying an fun. Not much sleep.

Opened up may doors, taut me so many life lessons, met many great people.
 
Hmmm. I'm 25 and don't live on campus or get involved in the uni life as it's not my scene.

Do I enjoy the course. Kind of, but I don't feel like I'm learning anything. It's more of a "doing it for the piece of paper" kinda deal. If I was offered a job in my subject area then I would quit in a instant. I feel it's more of a who you know rather than what you know. But different areas and different views really :)
 
I enjoyed it, but found I enjoyed working better.

If I could permanently be on my sandwich year, that's what I would have done.
 
1st year - good fun, halls etc, good lectures
2nd year - not so good, rubbish lectures, over reliance on masters students as lecturers
3rd year - better, mainly because id skip lectures and go ride my bike all day lol

would do a lot of things differently if I could do it again!
 
Loved it to pieces. Even the total drunken, cack-handed screw - ups and unadulterated **** ups were awesome.

It was like how Butlins should be.
 
Mixed bag for me- first year was a complete blow out second year was a great mix if work and fun, sandwich year was horrible, fourth year was exceptionally hard.

Lots of girl problems, money problems and the realisation that you relative freedom was rapidly coming to an end.

I may perhaps have launched myself at the social scene a little harder in terms of societies but ultimately I got a 2:1 for my efforts.

Looking back there was definitely a large part of me that went to Uni to prove a point rather than through a true desire to learn.

I now find myself like so many others in a position where I have a decent enough job but its not using my degree.

So yeh, mixed bag.
 
In my 7th year of Uni now, about to finally leave this year :p Had a great time, met some very inspiring people.
 
Year 1 - fantastic time, lots of work, lots of drink, little sleep.
Year 2 - depression
Year 3 - recovery, and an all right year
Year 4 - enjoying it a lot so far, working more then my parents most weeks, but still finding time to have fun.

Going to be applying for another 3/4 years soon, so can't be doing too bad.


Uni offers you bags of opportunity, it is what you make of it.
I've met so many great people, discovered snow sports, travelled a fair bit, and learnt a lot about myself. Ontop of learning all the cool academic stuff.

My one advice to people is to keep busy. Always. As I look back I find that 'free time' is simply wasted. Get involved with sports, societies, even extra work, and fill you're calendar to the brim. Make the most of it
 
I enjoyed it more than I thought I would, looking back on it I miss the student lifestyle of drinking far too much and playing a lot of Fifa!
 
Had a great time enjoying student life style!
I wasn't even a student, just living with my 2 best mates who were at Uni, while I worked. 3 of us down in London, was insanely good!
 
1st year was ok but got bogged down in a relationship with one girl.
2nd year was great , with great people and had a few flings, got on with my work and social time was awesome.
3rd year was a mess, all my 2nd year buddies left, moved into a dull house productivity went downhill, got kicked out of uni, got a decent job - didnt really care much about it after that.
 
Besides my first and second year, I absolutely hate the rest of it.
I can't stand anything in my fourth year. I hate it all so much.

At least it'll be over soon, all ready started the job hunt in the beginning of the academic year. Hopefully something crops up.
Year 1 - fantastic time
Year 2 - fun
Year 3 - meh, injured my spine at the end of the year and things went south
Year 4 - hate it more than anything, such a high workload I haven't been "out" once this year. Work, work, and more work, with a spot of gym time and lots of physio appointments for all sorts of injuries. Just hate it, depressing and life draining.
