What are the rest of our population meant to do? Become fucking electricians? Without a university education, there is no conceivable way to get a well-paying job, and thus one’s life is deprived of all pleasure. There is no greater purpose in a developed country than to become better-educated and better-mannered. Such a hopeless view of life, a life lacking aspirations, is one of the many reasons that depression and mental illness rates are so enormous.
This is just a promo ad for Universities. As someone who retired about 6 years ago from working at Uni (tech and teaching) I can hand on heart say that about 50% of students should not have been there; neither fit for it or just wasting time and money. Sad but true. It's just a business, academic integrity is no longer the main push, ditto for a broader education of critical thinking and research skills. It has merely become an exercise in processing school leavers and burdening them with debt, whilst keeping them away from the realities of daily life and personal responsibility.

"Funding Crisis'? University education was once free? It is just an industry for foreign student revenue. The student fees will rise again. Then the student loan rates will rise. Nightmare for students.
I’m still paying my degree 9 years later. If the UK universities increase the tuition fees again I’ll go to Germany or Netherlands for postgrad degrees. The value for money in this country is horrendous
You’re paying a small percentage of your marginal income over 30k. Just think of all the useless degrees where salaries are low and students repay nothing!
@@jakkuwolfinsomnia8058 Example You’re on Plan 4 and have an income of £36,000 a year, meaning you get paid £3,000 each month. Calculation: £3,000 - £2,616 (your income minus the Plan 4 threshold) = £384 9% of £384 = £34.56 This means the amount you’d repay each month would be £34. That’s the cost after a deliveroo takeaway for 2 and if they don’t get a decent paying job the loan is soon entirely written off !

My stepdaughter didn't want to go to university. She wanted to get into engineering and was accepted to join a luxury car maker in the Midlands. She was paid from day one and is now an engineer on great wages. She had a new car within months and is buying a house with her boyfriend. All her friends who went to university have little or no money and will 'hope' they can get a job in the areas they've studied. They've got a big job catching up and haven't got any real-life experience (as well as work experience). University is totally overrated and isn't the real world.
As an employer I can assure you we don’t care what you level of education is. Don’t care what mark or grade you get. I look for experience and who the individual is and what they bring as a person. We work along side a lot of different companies and they all work this way. University is pointless unless it’s law or medicine.
Message to UK youngsters considering university: 1. Go to the best university that you can (and like) and get your undergraduate degree - regardless of the cost. 2. Investigate what help is available for postgraduate studies and, if you are lucky enough, avail yourself of that, too. 3. Leave the UK

When I was younger people didn’t want to ring family with them. It was a chance to sample life without them but still with adults available for the sticky times. Why would you want to bring family? Unless it was just to get them here!
@@thebossguide4859 that's not entirely correct, for every family member they bring, they pay £1035 per year. This is called IHS fees (Health Insurance). So if they bring 3 family members (including children) they pay 1035 x 4 x the number of years + visa fees. They also have no recourse to public funds/benefits or what have you. So, it is not as free for them as you think. Educate yourself.
Maybe if Uni's removed a number of 'useless' degrees such as Gender Studies, Theatre Studies and Media Studies they could replace those students and lecturers , with valued qualifications.
No they didn’t. Because making a balanced judgment requires critical thinking, the kind of skill taught on such ‘useless’ degrees. Oh, by the way, Rishi Sunak has a Master’s in one of those degrees the Conservatives berated as useless.

Grade inflation must have meant that this country should be very successful? Universities have become a business, preying on foreign students for higher fees and then they ask for funding.
I think it’s unfair that some students work hard to get top grades and end up in the same university and class as someone who didn’t work as hard and got in through clearance because universities want the money. 🤨 no wonder you see allot of incompetency in job roles.
Erm, no. You still have to have the right points total to get on a clearing course, it is there only to fill places that haven't been filled because people have missed the cut-off point.. Incompetency is because the system in the first place has a lower percentage for the top grades. In 2000 one of my GCSEs was an A with a grade mark of 93. Nowadays, that would be a top tier A*, as the A* threshold is 85 or above for the same exam board. It has been vastly lowered. Grades are fixed to make it seem kids are getting smarter. They're not. They're entering university incompetent good grades or not.
Why would they have to bring their family ?, dont their families have jobs, homes and other commitments in their home countries or do the students get an allowance when their families come over here .
The UK was busy and couldn’t get to your question, so I’ll answer. Yes, they do. If you wish to have medicine, law, order, functioning supply chains, people who can read and write, you need higher education.
Sorry to say this, 9K a year is cheap! Imagine how much money is needed to run a course!!!! It's the government need to improve the job opportunities, and to give out student loans. there are so many good paying jobs in technology and information sectors, engineering, etc etc. Please, money don't grow on trees, all these funding, loans all come from hard working people in UK.
Why is it every year that these exam videos rarely if at all have any white pupils in the thumbnail? This is the first video I've seen this year that has had a white male in it.
White people are being ousted. Watch adverts, the only white people in them will be doing delivery jobs or serving coloured people. Next time there's a break in a tv show, count the white people in the adverts and count the coloured people. Come back n let me know how it turns out.
You keep finding ways to cope lol. A Levels are universally respected and are the preferred level 3 qualification for pretty much any credible institution
I’ve seen A level test papers and I’d be surprised if any student gets less than a B. A maths paper questions were the same level as a CSE mock exam I took at age 13 in the eighties. Plus the exams today are monitored by the subject teachers. Most of the students that go to university drop out within the first year.
A load of bs. I may have done a-levels 12 years ago, but you weren't doing matrix multiplication, calculus, integration and differentiation when you were 13.
The old O-level curriculum (GCSE equivalent) certainly contained some material now only covered at A-level. There was some basic matrix algebra and some fairly advanced geometry etc, but there wasn’t really any calculus. Drop-out rates vary by University, but the most recent data shows that 5.3% of students did not progress beyond their first year (Higher Education Statistics Agency, 2022).
No, in reality I think that the internet has revolutionised the standard, and that students are just becoming more capable as they can study more effectively and efficiently with the wealth of resources and educational tools available online.
@ceoiku7282 absolutely, in fact, I would say. School is much harder now than it was in the 90s, where a lot of schools were underperforming and school shutting down was a regular occurrence. Technology has made a lot of students and school a lot better. This year was one of the highest performances of the uk in its history.
The incredible evolution that has taken place over the past fifty years is truly remarkable. Teenagers' brains have become so much bigger and their intellect has magnified; it is truly a miracle. Will neurosurgeons investigate this phenomenom. However, how is it so many are barely literate, unable to write and unable to participate is any logical discussion without resorting to tantrums. And did I hear someone is going to read a degree in comics and graphic novels?What? And no foreign families please. Who is going to pick up the tab? UK taxpayer, no thanks.
You sound utterly ill informed. The overly high payment made by foreign students is how the universities have been able to function for the length of time it did.

On the subject of literacy, matters are very region-specific with home environment, the impact of COVID and early-years education all having an impact. Yes, there are disparities in the UK and there are issues but they are often structural and not down to irresponsible or immature individuals as the comment implies.
In the age of AI, I don't know why such way of teaching of learning still exist with so high cost / labor. As it said the $ is the most important factor of education, as a young woman, you can learned management more than MBA through pregnancy and give birth and raise a children. Doing it while young is much easier and the gov should fully support this with part time study rather than those 'rich' families. All academic study in degree/phD should be sponsor by employer as they are they one work closely with the student everyday and make sure the need fits him and the organization future.
Education costs and book costs have been higher than general inflation for a while. They never look at reducing costs just add more administrators / administration costs.
Your argument that employers should fund the education of their employees especially young employees is flawed because no-one stays in the same job for decades anymore. The employers won't get their moneys worth from those students before the student wants to be at a different organisation
@@magneticaimsThat's because companies do not properly compensate loyal workers with internal promotions. Job hopping is now the easiest way to climb your way up the corporate ladder.

Drop-out rates vary by University, but the most recent data shows that 5.3% of students did not progress beyond their first year (Higher Education Statistics Agency, 2022).
Been dumbing down for half a century or more. Give them real exams then post the results.
That's not true.
No, in reality I think that the internet has revolutionised the standard, and that students are just becoming more capable as they can study more effectively and efficiently with the wealth of resources and educational tools available online.
@ceoiku7282 absolutely, in fact, I would say. School is much harder now than it was in the 90s, where a lot of schools were underperforming and school shutting down was a regular occurrence. Technology has made a lot of students and school a lot better. This year was one of the highest performances of the uk in its history.
@@bad209 lol. You lot would be lost without a calculator word processor and Google.
@trevski9265 you sound ignorant 🙄. Most exams and assessments are calculator free. 😂 I'm guessing you weren't a class student. Pipe down.
It’s the American model, which doesn’t work.
Education is important. Kudos to you guys🎉
The incredible evolution that has taken place over the past fifty years is truly remarkable. Teenagers' brains have become so much bigger and their intellect has magnified; it is truly a miracle. Will neurosurgeons investigate this phenomenom. However, how is it so many are barely literate, unable to write and unable to participate is any logical discussion without resorting to tantrums. And did I hear someone is going to read a degree in comics and graphic novels?What?
And no foreign families please. Who is going to pick up the tab? UK taxpayer, no thanks.
Do you even have a degree??
Stop hatin'
So what if someone is going to study comics / graphic novels? They may be gifted artistically.
You sound utterly ill informed. The overly high payment made by foreign students is how the universities have been able to function for the length of time it did. The visa restrictions is hitting UK universities more than the students. The students just go somewhere else with more value for money. Meanwhile, universities are cancelling classes, cancelling teaching positions, removing core subjects and replacing them with airy-fairy courses. The money makers have been cut off, but the boats are still coming...dire straits. I for one I'm glad they're not getting foreign applicants for their overrated institutions. Maybe they will check their arrogance at the door and get off their high horses.
On the subject of literacy, matters are very region-specific with home environment, the impact of COVID and early-years education all having an impact. Yes, there are disparities in the UK and there are issues but they are often structural and not down to irresponsible or immature individuals as the comment implies.
Yaayyy … everyone gets anA 🎉🎉🎉
No experience no job. Sorry
I got my first job with no experience straight from university
@capnZA congratulations. Unfortunately not for the rest of the people. Like my nephew.
In the age of AI, I don't know why such way of teaching of learning still exist with so high cost / labor. As it said the $ is the most important factor of education, as a young woman, you can learned management more than MBA through pregnancy and give birth and raise a children. Doing it while young is much easier and the gov should fully support this with part time study rather than those 'rich' families. All academic study in degree/phD should be sponsor by employer as they are they one work closely with the student everyday and make sure the need fits him and the organization future.
Education costs and book costs have been higher than general inflation for a while. They never look at reducing costs just add more administrators / administration costs.
Your argument that employers should fund the education of their employees especially young employees is flawed because no-one stays in the same job for decades anymore. The employers won't get their moneys worth from those students before the student wants to be at a different organisation
@@magneticaimsThat's because companies do not properly compensate loyal workers with internal promotions. Job hopping is now the easiest way to climb your way up the corporate ladder.
No future
I am your sister from Yemen, and by Allah I only spoke out of hunger and distress. My mother, my brothers, and I lessons and tears. We are in a situation that only God knows about. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who brought us to this situation. By Allah Almighty, I did not write this appeal out of distress and distress. Poverty, O world, they have felt it So, I hope for you. By Allah Almighty, Lord of the Great Throne, he ate what I had in the house. By Allah, my brothers, he is my brothers by sitting in the house. Who has no food? By God, we are in a very difficult situation. We have 6 people entering the house, and my father has died, and there is no one who can depend on us and who lives in it.We live in a rented house because we cannot pay the rent we owe. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''' My brother, my first words are: I swear to God that I will not lie to you or deceive you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced from the war. My family and I live in a rented house in Al-Shahrab 15,000 Yemenis among us, and now we owe 45,000 for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life. Our father died, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who was with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out into the street and saw...The neighbors eat and stand at their door in order to give them bread even if they break it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if one of us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God. Then, I ask you to help me for the sake of God. I ask you, by God, to love goodness and to help me, even if you can, by messaging me on WhatsApp.On this number 00967716829984 and ask for the name of my card and send it and do not be late and may God reward you with all the best, my brothers Sagar, see how they are and help us and save us before they throw us out in the street, you will be lost or we will die of hunger. My family and I ask you, by God, if you are able to help us, do not be late and may God reward you well..`/--~««"?;:$#&()-!~|••√Π÷=_^°¥¢€¶„»¡≠≤≥∞™®©₱₣₤˝,'

Universities should pay taxes
And NGOs, and churches, synagogues, and mosques.

Racist..could of saved time
‘They’, ‘their arrogance’, etc. This ‘they’ is the whole of the UK higher education sector. It is diverse and adds value to society in many ways - through learning, research, mentoring and vocational courses. This is the sector educating future business leaders, entrepreneurs, politicians. If it fails, society fails.
Shame on the failed state
*I actually think its a possitive development.*
1. Foreign students not having to pay overpriced garbage and arrogant professors, and
2. For the first time in over 100 years, it is predicted that Oxford & Cambridge will be admitting A- students, without people paying £100Grand for Indian, Pakistani, United Arab Emirates or Nigerian Multimillionaire children taking up spots of British kids.
3. Any Uni unable to survive on £450Million a year (thats £9,000 x 50,000 inland students per year) really shouldnt be in the university business.
