| 376998 | 2005-07-31 10:50:00 | bah, 7th form!? School is the biggest crock of **** ever... I left after 6th form, worked for a few weeks at my dads work, taught myself how to build computers by building my own... I failed school cert, and sixth form cert, and after doing a short certificate course at a community center, I gained a scholarship into a Diploma in IT at AUT.... pffft.. school... Why learn math when a computer can do it for you... The mind should be used for what it does best - imagining, dreaming, etc. and as for algebra - don't get me started... |

[snip] anyone can do that though, its pretty easy dont you think, a screw here and there, push a stick of ram in, connect a few plugs.... |

All the other pages display correctly in both browsers, must be a bug in the page |

Getting it going when it won't is another thing however. Then there's the next level - designing and building the actual components. And I can see you failed English - what is badpratices?? |

| 377003 | 2005-07-31 22:38:00 | Hi Jimbo. I see that your thread has been hijacked. Getting back to your point. Go for it. I did three years as a short-term regular in the British Army fifty years ago. Loved every minute of it - well almost every minute. Then settled down in to normal civilian life. Never regretted it. :cool: | Scouse (83) | ||
| 377004 | 2005-08-01 07:08:00 | Say I didn't do 7th form... can I come back and do it whem I'm 21? Maybe not, because I don't see any 21 year olds at my school. | JimboJones (1680) | ||

| 377007 | 2005-08-01 08:15:00 | I'd suggest you stay around. Really, 7th form isn't designed to make you much more smarter; but it is meant to make you more mature. Also commented by many people is the fact that some don't really establish life-long friends till that very last year. Doesn't work for everybody, but certainly some I'm sure. Have fun, enjoy it! Besides, what harm will one more year at school do? |
