Agreed fucked around in my school days, returned to college in my 30`s, but University of Life gave me a better understanding and grounding of life than any type of qualification also played a massive part in gaining my current employment, as opposed to educational qualifications which just put the icing on the cake career wise.

I've known a few university graduates who have "failed" when they met the real world. But then there are those usualy in a technical speciality that have done well for themselves.

That's why the technical/practical degrees are worth ten times or more than "arty" types. Experience always trumps theory.

Its so competetive, if you went to a good university with a good major it is worth it, all these fools doing art in Newport university end up in a call centre but with loads of debt.
