Hi,
I was hoping you guys could give me your opinions on mature age study. I never finished high school and have worked and traveled for the past few years and then its as if my brain kicked in at around 22. I taught myself algebra through to elementary calculus and passed the entrance exam to a university that i wanted to go to. I got offered a place in a computer science degree at that uni and am now wondering whether i should take it or not.
I'm just a bit worried about my age (23) and wondering if it is just too late for me. The guy at the university that interviewed me was very upbeat about it but i think that is just because unis aren't as popular where i am lately and they are letting people in just to put bums on seats and make money.
Has anyone here decided to go for a degree later on in life? Will there be any point of a 26 year old comp sci grad?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated :)
Thanks
