HugoSanchez Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 At LSE they were virtually all international students, and they have a more realistic conception of what the global labour market is like. There are litereally millions of top-notch, exceedingly-motivated graduates being churned out in China and India every year, and with the world getting flatter, they are coming for the western jobs in engineering, medicine, finance. A lot of English students have a mentality of entitlement, they want to be able to limp through uni and get a cushy job afterwards. The international geeks know that ain't happening - they WANT and NEED to be the best, because where they're from, it won't be enough to be average. And they know how lucky they are to get their opportunity, so won't give less than 110%. Their level of motivation is off the charts, it was threatening/humbling/inspiring. Too many Brits don't comprehend the tidal wave of competition that's heading their way.so very truewell saidcant stress anymore how much value is added to your work just by interactin with these international geekswe had a handful on our course, and them man were old an had either done the degree before or been workin in the industry. Hard working peopleco-sign x2, at my uni I roll with the Germans and the Spanish and their work levels are high. They are flying through the coursework and a lot already have degrees in the subject before they join. Really they are there to maximise their english and so an extra degree from a UK uni with good grades will set them apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dubby Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 I hate this, I can't sleep at all for the last 2 months until 3AM but right now I'm dying for sleep when I need to stay up. The way how I'm ill and my eyes and head are aching is not helping either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Em Dott Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 You aren't too old. One of my bredrins is 23 going on 24 on campus. There are proper older guys studying at uni and on campus. The FOBs at my uni are pushing 40 hard adn still trying to move to 19/20 year olds with their tired game. It's funny to watch still but you are still young. IN fact, it just gives you more chance with chicks are nuff will probably tell you guys their age are too immaure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staying in Brum?Oh yeah i got my dissertation proposal approved, my adviser(who i doubted, but is actually a sick sick guy and is a genius) loves what i want to do.SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much work to do though man!

I ask people I know who are there now and I get contrasting reports on the average age range of people on campus.& I'm definitely looking on moving away, probably not somewhere too far as I will want to come back every other weekend, but defo somewhere new.I want that whole Uni experience.I just need to find what course I want to do.
