• Question: Would you retake a Science course? Why, was it because you enjoyed it or you believe you could do better now?

      Looking back bones, then of course I could say that I should have worked harder on my BSc Degree, I was probably enjoying myself running/socialising, but I dont have regrets about it.

      I am always learning something new, so you could say I am still studying even now! I have never reached the point where I thought I knew it all!

      Hi Bones

      If I had time to do some more studying it would be because of interest rather than to do better ..

      Hello Bones, I think that as adults, we call all look back at our schooling and wish that we had done better. Hindsight is the most exact science, which in the main we can not apply to any great effect. The most important thing is not to forget the past, but to learn from it and build on it. The level that I achieved in my Masters is one that I am not sure that I would have obtained when I was younger. Age makes people more focussed and tends to put a greater value on things. Tenacity is one of the most valuable traits of older students.

      Good thoughtful question, again.

      Mark.
