Going to university with dyslexia final update

[GothicGhost]

Thank you.

I think I also did well at studying because I have done lots low paying jobs and I know what it's like to struggle with not much money and with a family of five I wanted my kids to have a better childhood.
I know money doesn't solve all problems but it can help when you can pay your bills on time and have some left over to take kids outs for a day trip.

I and my wife never had much education and she also went to university a few years before I did, her final year was my start year and we both came out with a first-class degrees now.
So now we both have good jobs earning over double from our previous jobs and this is only the beginning of our careers.

Congrats on reaching the next level. You can vote Tory now.

No seriously, well done chap.

Well, I got confirmation on my final grade I am happy to say I got a first-class degree

Very well done!

I have now been hired as an IT engineer for a massive Aerospace company.

If it's Messybeast then I found it a wonderful place to work.

Well, I had my graduation ceremony, and I got my degree; it was very nerve-racking walking on stage.
This was my final part of the university, and I feel sad about it because it was such a significant turning point in my life.
Thank you to everyone who gave me advice and support, this forum has the best group of people.

Love it! Brilliant stuff. Just shows what hard work and determination can achieve. You should feel extremely proud of yourself.

I was stupid at school and didn't even bother to try, only went to school to see my mates.

GCSEs where a complete failure but I managed fine and got into IT, worked my way up and now head up an IT department for a pharmaceutical company, If I can hit a 6 figure salary with no grades anyone can.

Good grades help you skip all that crap at the beginning but they are not a requirement.

Congrats on the grades and job

I do and it's nice to show my kids you can do it if you really want it.

Well done!
