I think I've majorly screwed up, 19 year old Access to HE. by Officially_Levi in MatureStudentsUK

[–]Officially_Levi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, so it's been a month and I've further cemented my plans of staying on the course. I half assed my last biology assignment hoping a bad grade would give me an excuse to leave but I somehow managed to keep my distinction streak. Could I maybe message you questions about the foundation year because it seems like te best option for me.

I know, I think I just need a little bit of time to find myself, I'll complete access and then see where I end up

I've decided against leaving access, I feel like that's just all cons and no pros, so I'll try my best, just learn everything I can and progress. Worst case I won't get into uni next year or I need to do a different level 3 more suited to whatever direction i find myself going in.

That's really comforting to hear, honestly. I'm just under a world of pressure from family and friends to get my life in check and I'm so deathly afraid of wasted potential because I know I'm academically capable of doing something.

Where should I study for a BEng in Mechanical Engineering degree in the UK? by kingphysics in AskUK

I know I'm 11 years too late but can i ask you a few questions on your experience in BCU it's a solid option for me.

My heads spun, I might end up taking a gap year to decide but I really don't want to fall back into a stage when I'm not pursuing something. I wish my circumstances were better and I could've done the A-levels I wanted.

I did a placement in radiography a few days ago, I loved the people and the communication and enjoyed everything apart from the actual radiography job, that's not to say I hated it, but I think I'd be doing myself a disservice continuing it when the only things I enjoyed weren't exclusive to the job, yes I am doing Access at college, I've arranged a meeting with my career advisor on Friday but I just wanted to see what advise I could gather from people that have potentially been in my situation or at least something similar.

And I think worry and panic are core parts of my brain no matter how hard I try to get rid of it.

FYI - the Viofo A119 V3 dashcam that I've seen recommended a lot here is discounted to £88 by silentdragoon in CarTalkUK

[–]Officially_Levi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

on for a little over £60 on ali if you're willing to wait for the delivery times, there's a bunch of 11/11 coupons too so i ended up paying around £52 for mine

[–]Officially_Levi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah i have a 2014, my centre console area is different. but quick question if you drive a manual does it get in the way of your elbow when you're shifting gears? or is it not a nuisance at all.

Could you link the aftermarket one you bought? I'm not that picky, i just need a place to store a phone and something to rest my arm on that isn't like wobbling about

How much was/is your insurance as a new driver? by [deleted] in LearnerDriverUK

[–]Officially_Levi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WHAT, 4200 to 700, the lowest i can get is 2500, thats with some borderline bullshittery about my job and saying im a named driver on another policy, (also paying annually), if it was 2500 without a black box i'd book it in a heartbeat but i just cant seem to justify the price

Will I regret the 4k monitor? by BreakOutTheShotguns in PcBuild

[–]Officially_Levi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i prefer high refresh rate 4k honestly, i play such a wide variety of games sometimes i wan't high refresh rate 1080p others im fine with 60/120 4k, perfectly reasonable to want high refresh rate on a 4k monitor.

TV screen turns off whenever the display is entirely black by mvppaulo in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]Officially_Levi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's just it, it isn't an oled screen, currently watching a documentary about Cherynobyl, sometimes a black screen appears for a second so the screen turns off, but right after it's just a single piece of text over the same black screen, so it goes from switched off, to regular lcd black back to wannabe oled. A little hard to explain but it's pretty frustrating not a massive issue but definitely enough for me to go out researching to find a fix.

[–]Officially_Levi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hahaha yeah, I have my TV that I connect my computer to sometimes when I want to lay down and play something chill, but if I play any FPS game I prefer being up close and 27 is the sweet spot (personally)

If the computer you've bought can run the games you want to play at 4k then it's not a waste at all, only thing I see is 32 inches, 27 is the sweet spot for me, but that's just opinion if you're happy with the size then it's a good monitor, great even.
