Thanks for the quick reply.
I wasnt really looking at university when I left college, but thought I might aswell give it a try because I would probably later regret it.
I just dont think uni is for me. I will just have to see what my tutor says on monday
Ok mate. I would think very carefully if i was you. I study Graphic Design, Im in my second year now. After the first 8 weeks of my first year i nearly walked but as you have been advised, I sat down with my tutor and talked it over.
It will take a while for you to adapt. My work is very low tech and im a bit of a technophobe and when I arrived at uni every fucker else used illustrator and a camera to produce their work. None of them had heard of a pencil or a photocopier. I honestly thought I was the berk, but seriously mate, just adapt your way of thinking and you'l be fine.
By the way, I took a year out after completing the first year as I still had my doubts. My average score was 81 percent for the year so I knew what I was doing. However the past year was the worst of my life. All I did was sit there thinking about getting back to the part of life I love. Seriously, you will regret leaving. Stick through it and you'l be fine. They arent expecting miracles from you in the first year. The first year is about developing you as a person to focus on your selected specialist area. Don't worry.
