. English universities are very snobby


Thought that was Oxford and Cambridge University!

All the rest are merely pollytechniks with overblown ideas!



Yeghes da

Geography teached me to know that British Isles have different climate. Heureka!!

And it is 20 miles to Europe (oversees) from England.

Geography taught me that England is closer to Europe than that, it's inside it.

University of Plymouth
BSc ( Hons) Environmental Science.........

Had to do a year 0 foundation to get onto course, as the two HNCs were not acceptable... Medical Laboratory Technology and Electronics..... possibly getting out my slide-rule in the Maths entrance exam phased them a bit!!!

I was in the transitional period - log tables up to O level (it was a flogging offence to have a calculator in your satchel ) then calculators at A level.

I remember doing Newton-Raphson iterations at A'level

I did another degree a couple of years ago and had to go back to z-score tables. That was a shock!
