meh, i ended up doing a foundation year, and 2 years of the course and not gone back to repeat the 2nd year. complete waste of time, the foundation year was a joke, i was done by november, didn't do any work till almost may , 2 days reading before each exam and i passed very very easily. then first year of degree, computer science, 3 of the 6 modules all but identical to the foundation year, just as easy, just as pathetic, took just as long to do and i passed easily by doing a couple months work and another few days reading before exams.
degree's have apparently turned into complete jokes. its mostly this government crap thats been slowly making uni and schools much more restricitive and pointless over the years. hmm, how do i win an election with education stats in the toilet, i know, introduce tests that are fairly easy to give some stats to use. people suck at the tests as the tests as they should be, are random questions on a large area of info people learn, its natural for some people to learn some area's well and others not as well which can lead to results that aren't great. so to remedy this we've had a decade of hugely narrowing learning area's so the questions in tests are basically all directly learnt and not much else. which increases test scores but we are doing massively less work overall with everyone learning identical stuff.
my course was so insanely boring and easy , that i spent two years dossing around and passed with ease. now the 2nd year of the degree wasn't any more difficult at all, but i was so completely and entirely frustrated, bored, angry with money being spent and got very unlucky with moving in with great friends, who i really like, but just can not live with. loud, irritating, arguments, messy. i had a hell of a two years. all this added up to last year spent sleeping in the day when people were out, partying at night, ditching all my lectures because for two years they'd been worthless and essentially giving up.
i swear to christ i've learnt in 3 years what i could have learnt in the first 4 months of my foundation year, had i been given the work to do. brunel by the way, is NOT the place to go to uni for anything, but if you must make sure its a engineering(non computer) course. awful area, 1 club, no where to go, nothing to do, a stones through away from london as advertised, thats a 90 min train trip to central area's of expensive drinking and expensive cabs back or 2 hour nightbus's.
so i had a particularly awful time with uni, but, if you've got any kind of brain i would say, go get any work, learn c++ or java if you must on your own, quicker, without being limited. i also got completely done over by "over learning" what i was asked off in the foundation year, which was most of the extra i was apparently going to be doing in the first year of the degree, making it even more boring. then the extra work i did to stay mildly interested in the 1st year of the degree, was stuff i then didn't need to learn in the 2nd year, which just led to being even more bored.
i can fully understand that going to a better uni, somewhere you like and getting in a house with like minded people and your house ends up great, is a completely different experience.
You can check out prospects.ac.uk for a look at the job front. 
but i do hope to be on £20-25k by 25, aim for £30k by 30, where i live living isnt anywhere near as expensive as london, and im within range to get jobs in cheltenham, gloucester, swindon etc so theres still a lot of possibilities
