Hey,

 

So I just got accepted to two different Universities, with definite accepted offers, Pure Mathematics and Computer Science at one (two different courses accepted me) and the other just Computer Science. So now I don't need to stay in school, but unless I get a job... There's no point in me leaving just yet.

 

So basically, what do you guys recommend my lazy ass does to get a job in such an economical state as a student?

Stuff like:

Best places to apply to, worst, most experience, most fun, most challenging... You get the drift.

 

Thanks.

Stay in school. :/ Not many places that pay well will hire you without a high school diploma.

 

We don't get diplomas.

 

Just a heads up, this is a UK thing school-wise, so it'll be different I guess.

 

Employers really look for qualifications you leave school with, what you've done outside school and who you are... I don't need any more qualifications because I'm already accepted to my University of choice.

 

what university?

 

One from Strathclyde University, two from Glasgow University (my main choice).

go to shcool ... computer science sounds more fun!

 

Sorry, I probably wasn't clear in my OP, I'm currently in High School, soon to move to Uni, which means my qualifications this year won't effect what happens to me which is why I can leave and get a job. (to save money for going to Uni? Booze fund? You know...)

 

 

EDIT: God dammit, seriously guys, my English can't be that bad D:

 

I AM going to University because I have all my qualificatios.

I am CURRENTLY attending High School in my final year.

I NEED money for going to University for accommodation and alcohol.

I DON'T need to stay at High School because I don't require further qualifications.

 

That sounds shouty and angry but I'm just trying to be clear.

I can be really subtle and not realise it, sorry.

I though University was near free over there if you stay public?

Ask your parents for help...ask your government for help!
