University in the UK

How was your experience at Uni in the UK. Did you enjoy it?

I was in a shitty relationship for my first two years of it, and then covid was around for my last two years. These both totally destroyed the social aspect of my time at university.

Academically it was alright although I don't know how valuable what I learnt in classes really was (comp sci)

Ultimately when I think back on my time there I just regret how unsociable I was. University in the UK provides such amazing and easily accessible social opportunities that you will never have again in life and you should absolutely take advantage of them while you are there.

@something_else thanks, even though what you said about academically, did you still get good job opportunities afterwards?

I got a job at a software consultancy through an internship hub at my university and then ended up working for one of the consultancy's clients, so I haven't used my degree at all since leaving uni. I expect when I leave where I am now, it will help a fair bit though.
