I'm just curious as to what education people took after finishing secondary school?

I've done an art and design course for 3 years now, and now that I'm 19 I no longer get free education so have to pay at least 1k to join other courses..

I was thinking of doing a media hair and make-up course which offer a lot of opportunities in working within television. I also want to do an English language A-level

no plans for uni just yet.. the cost puts me off a bit

A degree atm, I'd like to do a masters and PhD at some point in the near future.

[Saph]

in what?

[reece(:]

GCSEs, AS Levels and a Level 3 Certificate

quit A Levels and now doing an Extended BTEC Diploma
Uni next year hopefully

[Marsh.]

2 years A-levels then didn't want go straight to uni so signed up for a couple of quick NVQs just to get myself into work for a couple of years and am now about to complete a 3 year Graphic Design degree.

I'm well and truly sick of education, college, school, projects, homework etc etc. Had enough. This is it. No more.

About to finish a BA in Lit and History and almost certainly doing a Masters next year in early modern history

[Jay.]

I finish A-levels in Business, ICT and Media in 3 weeks. Then to uni to study media, then hoping to either get a PGCE and teach it or move to London and work in TV/film/advertising.

Not entirely decided yet, but I have another 4 years to figure it out.

Meh Psychology is very overrated and not worth the degree nowadays.

Become a geologist

Just finished my AS exams (well I have a Spanish one left), I plan to drop economics and do A2 Spanish, English and sociology and then go to uni and study Spanish + another language from scratch.

I hope to travel or do anything that involves a lot of talking other languages. Kinda bored of speaking English

I haven't finished secondary school so I probably don't count but hey that's my plan at least

rocks roll along river beds following the currents and overtime become pebbles
